GRANDMA'S SQUASH PIE
Like my Grandma Bessie did, I grow my own squash, cook it, then freeze it in two-cup portions to use in this recipe. It rivals any pumpkin pie!

PUMPKIN (OR SQUASH!) PIE
I bought a HUGE white squash at our local farmer's market this weekend; the little old lady selling it told me that I could get "5-6" pies out of it. Well, there was enough squash to make EIGHT PIES! So, I made two and froze the rest of the filling. Anyway, this recipe produces a spectacular pumpkiny custard, and you CAN replace the pumpkin with a mild-flavored squash; simply remove the seeds and rind, cut into chunks and boil until soft. Then puree, and voila--you have what usually comes in the cans! Originally from the Joy of Cooking.

BETTER THAN PUMPKIN (USES BUTTERNUT SQUASH) PIE
This looks like pumpkin pie, tastes like pumpkin pie but it is butternut squash. Perfect for those gardeners who grow squash instead of pumpkin. My boys can't tell the difference.

IMPOSSIBLE BUTTERNUT SQUASH PIE (LIKE PUMPKIN)
This is a BUTTERNUT SQUASH PIE. I have been making this pie for years. This pie makes it's own crust, with the help of a blender! A quick & very easy recipe. It won 2nd prize at the Indiana Fair. It is always a winner! Guests think it is the best "pumpkin" pie they ever had! Are they surprised when I tell them it is a squash...

Pour into your pie plate. Do not over fill ! Sprinkle a little nutmeg on top. If you have any leftovers...put in a small or individual pie pan.

- 2. Bake about 45-50 minutes....until center is dry. Take out and cool on a wire rack, for about an hour or two. Then put in refrigerator at least 2-3 hours before serving. When ready to serve....put dollops of whipped cream on serving pieces... and top with a pecans.......looks so pretty!!!! ENJOY!!!!! I think this was a Pillsbury recipe, from years ago...that I adapted to my taste ...for using squash. Squash seems to have a more delicate, and milder taste than pumpkin. I do hope you will try this recipe... and please let me know....Thank you.

Steps:
- 1. Butternut squash is kind of tricky to work with. I prick it all over with a fork, and nuke it to get it soft enough to peel and seed, and dice. This can take as long as 8 minutes or so, turning the squash until it softens enough to work with.
- 2. Peel, halve, scoop out the seeds and dice. Put in a glass bowl with a few tablespoons of water, cover and microwave unti squash is tender.
- 3. Place squash in a large mixing bowl, and with an electric mixer, beat til smooth.
- 4. Add milk, butter, eggs and vanilla, mix well.
- 5. Combine the dry ingredients and add to the wet ones.
- 6. Spray a 2 quart baking casserole dish with non stick spray, and pour squash mixture in.
- 7. Cover and bake in a pre heated 350° oven for 45 minutes.
- 8. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine the topping ingredients until crumbly.
- 9. Sprinkle over squash, and bake uncovered for 15 minutes or until heated through.
