Maple Cinamon Pumpkin Pie


  • This is a really good pumpkin pie recipe. I thought the maple flavor would be stronger, but it's barely there. It's there enough, though, that it's really good. Especially if you use Karla's pie crust recipe. 

  • 1  recipe Pastry for Single-Crust Pie
  • 1  15-oz. can pumpkin
  • 1/2  cup sugar
  • 1/4  cup pure maple syrup or maple-flavored syrup
  • 1  tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/2  tsp. salt
  • 3  eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1  cup milk
  • 1  recipe Maple Whipped Cream (optional)
