Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Cup Homemade Apple Butter (Recipe Attached)
1 Cup Cooked Fresh Pumpkin, Drained In Colander & Cooled
1/2 Cup Packed Light Brown Sugar
3/4 Tsp. Ground Cinnamon
3/4 Tsp. Ground Nutmeg
1/2 Tsp. Salt
1/4 Tsp. Ground Ginger
3 Large Eggs, Lightly Beaten
3/4 Cup Evaporated Milk
1 Pkg. Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Crust or Your Homemade Recipe

Steps:

Preheat oven at 425°F
In a large bowl, combine the apple butter, pumpkin, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and ginger. Add eggs. Gradually beat in milk until smooth. Pour into pastry shell.
Bake at 425°F for 35-40 minutes or until set (cover edges loosely with foil if necessary to prevent over browning). Cool on a wire rack.
Garnish with whipped cream if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.
Tip: If decorative cutouts are desired, roll additional pastry to 1/8-in. thickness; cut out with 1-in. to 1-1/2-in. leaf-shaped, pumpkin, ghost or apple cookie cutters. With a sharp knife, score cutouts for detail patterns, if desired. I like to use mini cookie cutters for arranging around the edge of pie. Use egg wash or a filling to adhere the pieces. I'll use regular sized cutter for the center.
