Alison Finally Makes a Pumpkin Pie for Thanksgiving | Home Movies with Alison Roman

[@961shazia]

Cookie crumble crust is the sole reason I am attempting a pumpkin pie this year. Love your videos! (and omg! congrats on the baby!!)

[@irock550]

Me too!!! I just bought ginger thin cookies

[@QuintessentialMoo]

How did it go?

[@arilehman9723]

My mother used to do these over the top large holiday meal celebrations where she would be doing all of the shopping, prepping, and cooking for days. My siblings and I would often get roped in to help the day of and spend many hours in the kitchen while her many guests were wined and dined at the table. It was only when I was working full time, going to school part time, and being a mom that I started to set healthy limits for myself and focus on my family. I encourage everyone to split up the meal courses and make the event a group cooking effort so you all have time to enjoy each other's family, holiday free time, and conversation at the table.

Hi, Alison! I have my own recipe, but your’s sounds incredible!! I’m sold with the freshly grated ginger and nutmeg. Love a ginger snap crust too! I have a tip for slicing pies… slice the whole pie in half then in half again to form a cross. Slice each quadrant in half (or in thirds or fourths for tinier slices). I find this easier. Love your content and recipes and use them all the time! Thanks!

As a Brit, two Thanksgiving foods stand out to me as 'why?' - sweet potatoes with marshmallow and pumpkin pie. At least now I know I can give the latter a go. Bless Alison Roman being everyone's Thanksgiving Fairy godmother🥰

[@marilynkozlow8400]

It’s just traditional 😋 Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. Some people like, some don’t

[@SonalDack]

@marilynkozlow8400 oh I'm absolutely not knocking it, and while I wouldn't go out my way to make either dish, I'd gladly try both if they were served. I'm desperate to try green bean casserole too!

[@foadnwol6684]

@@SonalDack Just don't try the recipes that incorporate canned cream of mushroom soup...make your own sauce.

[@SonalDack]

@@foadnwol6684 Good call! Will do 🫡

[@JDA4]

It sounds gross, but it’s actually delicious!!

[@Rachel-ws8bc]

A spiced cookie crust is so the way to go with pumpkin pie.

[@drocknoel]

Just wanted to stamp, that I am true pumpkin spice girlie, but have never loved pumpkin pie. Until now. This was a knock out!

[@iHEARTr0wing]

I had half a can of pumpkin left over and I didn't want to be left with half a can of evaporated milk if I used many other recipes! So this was PERFECT! Halved the recipe, risked it and used only 1 egg, baked it in a small cake pan, it turned out great!!! Used the leftover double cream (UK) to make the whip. So pleased!

[@cait__l]

I made the ginger snap crust and it was absolutely magical

[@james44zz]

I actually loved the ending 🤭 So funny

[@Brianna1264-n5n]

I ordered the same gingersnap cookies as Alison. Are they really the reason why the pie didn’t work at the end? Or will it still be okay to use? SO EXCITED IT LOOKS AMAZING!!

[@alisoneroman]

Hah they’ll be good just follow the recipe! It really was just my mis-measuring

[@suttenwasserman7517]

Would you mind linking the gingersnaps?

[@meredithcolias-pete5421]

*preemptively liking this*

[@jnew50]

11/29/24 1:39 The crust did not work for me, maybe because I used Tate’s ginger cookies which have a high butter content. The whole thing turned into a buttery puddle in the bottom of the pie plate while blind baking it. Back to my old standby - Alison’s “The Only Pie Crust” and Bon Appetit’s “Best Pumpkin Pie. Perfect!

[@lolavela3467]

Probably a silly question, but if i make the pie the day before can i put the whip cream on the morning of? or is best put on right before serving?

[@christinahilpipre-frischma9351]

Your ingredient list mentions black pepper but it’s not in the instructions. I’m assuming you add it when you add all the spices.

[@nectarine]

Why did my crust get puffy after the first bake 😭

[@daankok2151]

Aspergus and nutmeg are best friends!

[@AshleighLangs]

What is the name of the cookies?

[@lynnetrevisan2682]

I believe those are ginger snaps.

[@julias6688]

She admitted they didn’t really work. I wouldn’t make that recipe, she wasn’t even happy with it

[@symone166]

@@julias6688 She said in the editing that is was falling apart because she didn't spray the pan, actually. The cookies should work fine.

[@SonalDack]

They are Nyåker Peppar Kakor. I think they're widely available? They are in the UK via Costco, John Lewis and Amazon but they're a little pricey compared to Biscoff (here).

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

Is it just me or does the crust look a bit thick? I wonder if it's easy to make it thinner

[@jmorrisbest]

Looks delicious 😋

[@ashleys9711]

Alison, where is your necklace from? It’s beautiful and I’ve been on the hunt for a quality one.

[@ABSG7]

It’s hard to believe her when we KNOW she HATES pumpkin pie.

[@alisoneroman]

I don’t hate this one

[@mysticray-mixtureelixir9050]

Seems like individual pumpkin pies would be better for this recipe

[@QuietStormX]

Should had Par backed the crust first......;-D

[@ChildofGod98765]

🔥Jesus give please give me strength as a single mom things are hard for me. I have everything on my shoulders both of my sons are special needs. I keep faith even as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. Lord give me grace and protect us from this harsh world.🔥❤️

[@terrimorris5544]

if i was ever going to try pumpkin pie this would be the recipe. But the idea of ppie honestly repulses me.

[@matthewdunne83]

very Taylor Swift!!!

[@nataliajabrail2955]

I see the belly : ) congratulations!

[@julias6688]

Not impressed with that crust recipe. Why didn’t she test it before filming?

[@Georgeann-f1d]

who cares? baking can be a crap shoot. I like that Alison is keeping it real & we get to see that anyone can make mistakes in the kitchen. If you want perfect & albeit boring then go watch Martha Stewart!

[@MaryJoSchrader1]

I love that she shows her true self. We all make kitchen mistakes!

[@julias6688]

@@Georgeann-f1d thought I’d learn something new. I guess I did!

[@lindanewland9182]

Looks burnt

[@arilehman9723]

The video descriptions says she sometimes flys too close to the sun among other interesting, honest, and lovely disclosures. I just love listening to her talk, cook, and be a relatable human.
