I know some don’t like pie made from a pumpkin because the taste is different from the canned pumpkin. That’s because most of the “pumpkin” in the cans are really made from different kinds of squash. So if you only have some other winter squash try them out in a pie too I like mixing them to find different flavors. Sweet dumpling squash has a kinda chestnut flavor. Hubbard and butternut are also good ones to try.

[@olivers333]

You are just the bee’s knees. You are so generous and I just love watching and learning from you. Thank you so much. Hugs from Australia 🇦🇺

[@ChocolateBoxCottage]

The pie looks scrumptious, but I think my favorite part was at the end when you asked us to invite someone to join us for Thanksgiving who might not otherwise have a place to go. So you warmed both my tummy and my heart! Thank you for being you. ~Michele

[@Lightupthedarkness001]

Well what the hell is the ingredients with the salt

[@kimberlytrent5245]

You're so pleasant! A great presenter!! I can't wait to try this recipe:) thank you!!👍

[@green-eyedgimlet5250]

I get such a kick out of watching your videos and still learning more than I already knew. What a blessing! Thank you so much!

[@bowenfamilyfarm9776]

I've never made a fresh pumpkin pie. I'm going to give this a try. Thank you for sharing this with us. God's blessings.

[@poohbearpooh8758]

I grew my own sugar pie pumpkins this year, jack-o-lantern pumpkins, too. I'm so excited to get started. This video is perfect. Took 20 minutes to find your video. Thank you for being here.

[@sanlewis6068]

Omgosh I need a beach towel, I am drooling over here!!!

[@Earthy-Artist]

Thanks Carolyn this is now my go-to recipe!. Amazing with whipped cream! I make pans of this without crust, also great with crust. I have eaten pumpkin pie for breakfast for years & thought I was weird for it , guess not! I've used both pie pumpkins and decorative pumpkins , both worked. I also boil, then season & bake seeds. Pumpkin the gift that keeps on giving!

[@susantaylor8507]

Oh I'm going to try this for breakfast for our church so so good

[@lindagullage3077]

Thank you so much once we get on our farm I will love using your healthy food for my family God bless you and your family

[@dinorancher5560]

Thanks for this. I just made two pies and still have a gallon of puree left. (Kiddo and I bought a lot of sugar pumpkin lol) will definitely try this recipe as I love low sugar high protein snacks and treat. Idahoans represent. 😀🙌

[@kimberkimKC]

I've been experimenting with homemade pumpkin pie for years, I'm excited to watch this, but letting the ads play first. Any way I add 2 secret ingredients, cracked pepper and fresh raw honey.

[@joanbaggs1915]

I made your pumpkin pie Recipe for Thanksgiving and am making it from now on! It was wonderful!!!!

[@sachisubrahmanyam2396]

I loved your recipe ! importantly I loved your message to invite someone who doesn't have a place to go on Thanksgiving! Your are such a kind person!

[@pamelarogers6143]

Looks delicious. Thank you for the download

[@dianeboeglin5702]

Love, love, love this video on Pumpkin pie from the pie pumpkins. You make everything look so simple. I love to cook and do not have much experience from actual pumpkins. I have been gifted with 3 pie pumpkins so I will be making homemade pumpkin pie soon. Thank you very much!

[@MrsTheClown]

You're the best, Carolyn! Thank you so much for bringing us into your kitchen and sharing your wonderful recipes!

[@desireeperez3220]

Amazing!! I used the recipe for my Pumpkin pie

[@deborahharrison815]

Thanks for the pictures! What a treat!

[@LittleCountryCabin]

Love the new intro! Great video from a great channel! I’ve got two pumpkins cured and ready to use🤗. Thank you for sharing. God’s blessings to you ❤️

[@laquerisma]

Pie's in the oven, right now. I halved the recipe cut back the sugar a bit and added 4 eggs instead of 6. I love how easy this is. I'm making the crustless version.

[@dave2431]

I am making a pumpkin pie as per your recipe right now. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for the instruction and insights. I can't wait to taste it (and maybe some puree and eggs for breakfast tomorrow).

[@HomesteadingFamily]

Hope you enjoy!

[@dave2431]

We did! I'm planning a breakfast pumpkin breakfast custard next. Great idea!@@HomesteadingFamily

[@trryhin]

Never really thought about this for a breakfast custard, that sounds great! I have a couple pie pumpkins curing in our basement, guess I know what I'll be doing today. And thanks for the recipe download!

[@finestplanet1353]

Your Fantastic Carolyn...Your skills in the kitchen are impressive. We appreciate you. Thank you so much. finestplanet1

[@karenlyle322]

That’s a beautiful pie🥧😋. Thank you for sharing 😀

[@euphan123]

👍

[@tonyagunter3672]

Carolyn, I have 2 questions that are not related to this episode. 1) Where did you get your wonderful stainless canning funnel? I'm trying to find one with an open handle like yours that I can hang on the side of bowls. 2) Would you do a tutorial on how you care for your cast iron pans? From when you first get them to general maintenance? I have learned so so much from you all. Thank you!

[@twistedgoats8305]

That was a great video, thank you!

[@amandagunckel4238]

I done this and canned it. Or course I didn't add the milk and eggs until I was ready to use. I done this because I was worried the pumpkins would go bad before time to use. I don't have a cellar and great place to currently store produce. I am baking today for tomorrow so far everything is looking great.

[@trwhitr]

Ok! I’ve made this two times now and I have to say WOW! I like to make (2) in a roll pan and freeze. So yummy and thank you for such a wonderful recipe. I think the custard texture is marvelous and Oh! My husband who dislikes pumpkin pie likes this one I’ve made pumpkin cheesecakes in the past my family including my husband loved but I used a pink banana gourd. I cannot find them for sale anymore. Guess I’ll have to grow them. I prefer them over the sugar pumpkin

[@maureenhargrave3568]

I make a version of James Beard pumpkin pie which calls for a bit of calvados (apple brandy) and some spices including finely chopped candied ginger. The last few years the pie crust has been eliminated (gluten intolerant) the pumpkin mixture strained, then baked as a pumpkin custard in a water bath. So silky and so good.

[@WalkingScriptureWithShanna]

Purée-ing the pumpkin now and then going to start my crust!

[@suzannerowe6308]

Thank you for sharing your amazing recipe! I can't wait to try it. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

[@cait4048]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! Thank you for a wonderful pie tutorial. I love that you mention inviting folks that don't have anywhere to go to your Thanksgiving... that is what my family has done for decades, and it has been amazing. Blessings during this season of gratitude! I have a baby chick keeping me company right now and she makes my heart so full

[@doublekhobbyfarm]

Can this be made and frozen after it has been baked. Love to try this for thanksgiving but don’t want to making fresh the day before

[@FarmhouseTeas]

Yum! My favorite though I have to make mine with honey... Sugar allergies 😬 I love mine spicy too!!

[@christygepfert3754]

Love it! Trying the breakfast casserole out on family today!

[@rough-hewnhomestead5737]

Ok...you talked me into it....I'm going to bake pumpkins tonight and pumpkin pies from it on Wednesday!

[@julieschultz6363]

Actually, I roasted my first whole pumpkin last night and I put it in stem and all, not even stabbing it before roasting it. It was a fairly small sugar pumpkin and took about 70 minutes to get soft. At that point, the stem came right out. Interestingly, the stem itself was barely warm.

[@connandvansmom]

Happy Thanksgiving thank you for the recipes & video instructions

[@cjkordon]

Thank you for this method. So much better than cutting and removing seeds first. Did one today. Two pumpkin pies cooled on the counter. Have about three more cups of puree that I will probably freeze. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@ashleyschellinger6052]

Curious. How is that easier ? Seems easier to cut pumpkin first. Clean it and spoon it when cooked

[@cjkordon]

@@ashleyschellinger6052 It is difficult for me to cut into our squash when raw. I have to have my husband cut our acorn squash for me. I just don't have the strength.

[@deanna4814]

Have a blessed Thanksgiving

[@hellofromhoney]

Hi there you mentioned you added a pumpkin pie mix in the ingredients? Can you please advise what's in that? I have never tried pumpkin pie but my husband has and loves it! Unfortunately he doesn't bake and I don't believe its readily available here in New Zealand. Love you videos by the way!

[@Bibliobelle_]

I think it would be so interesting to have a Q and A just about you guys... like your courtship/marriage story, your kids, your religious beliefs...

[@allenmorse5795]

I can't find the recipe. Where is it? It is coming up on KZbin. It looks really good. Would love the recipe. Thanks

[@balenciaerskine4475]

Can you use your pumpkin seeds to plant after you have cooked it? I think not. So it is best to cut out the seeds first then cook, right?

[@marilyngodfrey868]

Carolyn do you know, you have a beautiful face, but you look like you are about 14 or 15 years old! It is so amazing how much knowledge you have and share with us Thank you. May our Lord continue to bless and keep you and your family. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@sarah-nm6dt]

🤤

[@thehairstons996]

Lol 😂

[@madonnaallore2912]

I love your videos and homesteading tips! Thank you! I am new to this and I just bought 10 Saphire Gem Chickens, they are so fun to watch grow and so excited to get fresh eggs. I have a question about raw milk is it necessary to boil this first before drinking, after the cream is collected? thanks

[@auntmayme8119]

It’s nice to see an old Evenflo quart measuring cup. Fond memories! Can I use Sucanat instead of the brown sugar? If so, how much?

[@stephaniejoyce6896]

Wonderful! I have your breakfast casserole download, which I'm assuming is the same custard base you use here. I literally was just thinking about whether I could use that for my pies. I made the custard for company last week and it was a huge hit.

[@a_mustache_of_great_repute]

I usually half mine, then glaze them with butter/maple syrup (depending on what i have on hand)

[@susanwoo466]

Love your videos and i have purchased your classes. I am purchasing books for my grown children. One of my sons loves to cook for himself so i thought id give him a couple of "from scratch" cookbooks. Do you have any recommendations?

[@michelle10261]

I collect pumpkin seeds when I cook soup dose it affect the seeds. Thank you for sharing your video.

[@karenhomchick4596]

it would be really nice if under the show more of your dehydrogenated pumpkin recipe you put the link!

[@dijohns4018]

You can put your washed pumpkin in the microwave till the knife inserted comes out easily. No fighting with peel. Just scoop out the seeds . Either bake the seeds or feed them to the chickens.

[@fireseedmusic]

Hey! You said nothing was store bought in your pumpkin pie, everything was homegrown. I am curious about that tho', since there is brown sugar & vanilla in it. Are you actually growing your own sugar cane & vanilla beans, or is there something I am missing here? Are you growing your own grain for the crust too? Thanks for the recipe, I am working on pumpkin pie tonight!

[@katievaughn3695]

So I made the pie crust last night. Can someone tell me if you pre-bake the crust??? Need to know asap!! Please and thank you. I’m still fairly new to making pie crusts.

[@johnmcook1]

great video do wish you had of put in some snap shots of the pie itself. Or a slice of it

[@cappiejoe1969]

Must have missed it but what is the pumpkin pie mix you used?

[@janwormuth9739]

Can I use evaporated milk in this recipe💓?

[@ohske]

😯😋😋👍👍👍👌

[@lisawenzel2364]

Do you have a canning video for canning pie pumpkin.?

[@ironbomb6753]

Can squash be cooked like this?

[@daisydelaney2269]

Yes

[@hettieharless8203]

Do you think this would work with persimmon pulp ?

[@sundaycaradine5406]

I’ve always wanted to try this but thought too much work boy was I wrong, I gave 1/2 a gallon ziplock bag left with custard to make at least 4 more pies and the taste is sooooo different from the usual frozen pie I have always purchased next time I am adding more sugar it just wasn’t sweet to me and I added 1/2 cup of maple syrup Thank you so much

[@hvp6218]

What's in your pumpkin pie spice mix?

[@jeanettesapartmenthomestea1603]

Can you still make the seeds edible

[@Artiefrog]

Love videos but feel like a little kid after

[@christopherscallio2539]

I should've went straight to your Channel Carolyn. I've got some Pumpkins & been searching for Homemade Pumpkin Pie Videos. They claim they are Homemade until they Pull Out a Can.

[@TimberLee13]

Lol I wish i would have seen this before i sliced 6 pumpkins open and a finger.

[@wendyplear82]

It looks delicious and do easy. Ok, YOUR STILL GETTING EGGS FROM YOUR CHICKENS??????? We are fairly new to chickens. We haven't gotten eggs since we got a new flock to add to our girls. It's been 4 months. Can anyone tell me why this is? The new ones are 6 months now and we do have a head lamp we just added because of the cold. I miss my eggs!!!

[@RobinwoodFarmLLC]

What’s your pie crust recipe?

[@donnasouthwood]

Looks delicious! I grew pie pumpkins this year for the first time and I'll be giving this a try. You make it look easy! Why do you keep calling the pie "he"? It was sort of creeping me out after a while.

[@griffgriffith3039]

Homemade brown sugar.. not store bought?

[@17buckrogers]

your spices are store bought

[@mr.originaloneniceguy]

please don't tell the other cooks, but I Like Your Recipe Better

[@lakereflection7386]

If your doing this in a homesteading practice I'd have to say cooking the whole pumpkin without making an attempt at saving the seeds for next your feels a bit wrong to my gardening brain

[@ashleyschellinger6052]

I’m not sure about the whole pumpkin cook. Seems like a huge mess and more work

[@edstoffregen3623]

Way too much sugar

[@zacadams6792]

too much unnecessary talking

[@luxursunsets]

take your commie hat off, Zac

[@workoutwomanj]

Thank you. I love and appreciate all your recipes and the time you take to explain everything.
