O! Pumpkin pie!

Happy Thanksgiving! 

This year was a little bit different. Mom is spending time in lovely, sunny San Diego and we are here in Seattle enjoying the rain. But of course, what would a holiday be like without baking something amazing. Left with a sweet pumpkin, I decided it would be only fitting to have Olivia over and attempt to bake a Fresh Pumpkin Pie.

Our victim (can you see? he is sweating in fear!)

Olivia gives him a good wack!

Ta-da!

Baked pumpkin

The lovely, homemade, pie crust chilling in the freezer

What if we just put the ingredients in the pumpkin, glue it together and serve?

Olivia going in for the baby … erm … pumpkin mush

We just about killed the blender… oops

Pumpkin guts (measuring out the pumpkin puree so we can smoosh out the water)

Pumpkin pancake!

Mixing in the dairy goodness

Ready to bake

What to do with the seeds? Well, cook them of course

Finished product, just waiting to be eaten!

Now this is one pie I am ready to dig into… And with the left over pumpkin puree, about 4 cups, I think I will be making some pumpkin bread. Any suggestions?
