Our Classic Pumpkin Pie Recipe Creates A Velvety, Creamy, Pumpkin Custard With Just The Right Amount Of Traditional Pumpkin Pie Spice. Grandma Will Be Proud!
I’ve been making this version of pumpkin pie for sooo long I have absolutely no idea where I originally got the recipe. I have it written on a little recipe card that is more than a little tattered and stained but, obviously, well love! In the past, I have tried different pumpkin pie recipes just to make sure I had found THE one for me. I have to tell you, this one is, hands down, my all-time favorite. It is the perfect classic pumpkin pie for me and my family. If you are looking for THE one for you, give this classic a try. Enjoy!

November 25, 2018 at 4:14 pmCan I substitute molasses for corn syrup and more brown sugar? I don’t have time to go to the store

December 9, 2018 at 12:00 amSorry Sarah, I always make it with molasses. I’m not sure how the corn syrup and brown sugar will work. So Sorry!!

November 28, 2009 at 1:16 pmI make the recipe on the back of the One Pie pumpkin can, a product that's only available here in New England. It's what we used while I was growing up, it's what I use now. Tried the Libby's because of all the hype, and both my BF and I said, “oh no!” Talk about food traditions, grins. Your recipe is very very similar so I know it's super good!

November 24, 2009 at 7:02 pmThis sounds soooo good! I have never heard of a pumpkin pie that calls for molasses – it definitely makes it unique. I know molasses is available in Germany but I have yet to find it. Can't wait to see the photo!!
HoneyB says
November 24, 2009 at 10:24 amI've never seen molasses either but I'm betting it is good! Can't wait to see the photo!

November 24, 2009 at 8:50 amI've been making the pumpkin pie recipe on the Libby's can for my entire cooking life. You really have thrown me a pumpkin pie curve with your recipe…haha…I'll bet the molasses gives the pie a wonderful flavor. I think I'm going to have to give this a trial run tomorrow!! Thank you.
