How many tablespoons or teaspoons would I need for spices if I use pumpkin pie spice? (it has cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, all spice)

[@joapps8135]

My beautiful pie still cracked, even though 3 additional egg yolks were used :(

[@andrewrock35]

If I'm gonna use pumpkin spice as opposed to individual spices, how much should I use?

[@marilinmartinez6237]

@@andrewrock35 I used 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin spice but I don't really like the taste of it so if you do you can add more. Or you can add half a teaspoon and add more after you taste it?

[@andrewrock35]

@@marilinmartinez6237 ok thanks, I found another review that said to use 1 tbsp so I may try that, particularly as you said 1/2 was probably not enough

I made this last weekend. It came out great! I'm from Holland and pumpkin is kind of a forgotten vegetable here and I can only buy whole pumpkins, not the canned stuff. So I had to make pumpkin puree from scratch which was very easy. For spices I used "speculaaskruiden", that's a typical Dutch fall/winter spice mix containing cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, cardamom, white pepper and dried orange zest. So delicious. Anyway, thanks for teaching me how to make this. Doei!

[@jenniferkennet7193]

hoi! hoeveel speculaaskruiden heb je gebruikt? leuk om Hollander hier tegen te komen

[@00heleen00]

Hey, hoe veel gram puree heb je gebruikt? :)

[@JustNatax3]

Ayyy as a German I can understand your weird language and yes I would also like to know how much pumpkin you needed and how you made the puree! Grüße :)

[@jeanburk9539]

Ahhhhh, the Dutch secret! Grandma would approve. Happy Thanksgiving!

I don't like pumpkin pie so I never know what sort of qualities make a pumpkin pie good. I decided to do this recipe for Thanksgiving because I just happened to have Chinese 5 spice already. My family loved it and couldn't get over how NICE it looks, no cracks or anything. Definitely a thumbs up all around for this one.

is it taste good ?

Just made mine too! Soo good

[@josieeekoi]

I made this pie for Thanksgiving and my whole family loved it! I like how it's not overly sweet. The spices blend perfectly and it has a nice custardy texture.

[@lindsnix13]

I had tried 7 recipes from popular food KZbinrs. This was by far the BEST!!! I only added a little vanilla extract and didn’t have Chinese 5 spice so I used all spice and some cloves in tiny amt. but other than that followed the recipe & it’s now my forever pumpkin pie recipe 🥰🥧

Take care lovely I look forward to more puds and meals xx

[@AreliLaughs]

I had canned pumpkin on the shelf and I was dying to try this recipe a while back...until my older bro decided to throw it away. He said that having it sit on the shelf and NOT in pie form was agonizing(he has been craving pumpkin pie for the longest time EVER and got impatient) So, this year I grew my own pumpkins and WILL be making this pie with them(I mean he can't throw away all my pumpkins, can he?) I'm making this ESPECIALLY for him too. He loves food, haha. Thank you for the recipe, Chef John. Your pie looks wonderful! -Areli

[@jek9911]

I followed your instructions except used 2 yolks instead of 3 (ran out of eggs). We baked the pumpkin and scraped out the shell because Halloween just passed and we had an uncut pumpkin sitting there. I doubt it was a sugar pumpkin - it was a bit orange/yellow rather than strong orange (will color tell you if it's a sugar pumpkin?). Also, we didn't puree but just mixed (about 470 grams) into the condensed milk, egg/yolks, and so forth. The pie tasted good. No stringy, chewy fiber, a few smallish chunks, but the overall flavor was evenly spread. Texture was good, I thought. My only complaint is that my children said, "It tastes just like from the store!" Can one egg yolk make the difference? If they had said, "...just like from FOODWISHES!", then I'd be fine. My 4 yr old daughter crushed all the graham crackers, diligently, single-mindedly, yet pleasantly to make the crust you showed in the sunny cheesecake video. Anyways, thanks for all the videos. We ennnjooyyy.

[@MegaLiterally]

Great recipe but a warning to everyone. I didn't properly get the lumps out of my spices and I paid the price. I thought with all that good whisking I had gotten rid of any lumps in the spices but I noticed about 15 minutes into cooking that there were some black burnt spots on top and concluded they must have been lumps that rose to the top and starting burning. I had to puncture the beautiful glossy skin and cut them out like a skin cancer surgeon leaving an unsightly hole in the nice skin. The pie tasted fine but it was just an aesthetic thing. I will make sure to siv my spices next time.
