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 pie! I have the recipe all printed out for them,for when they go home. Please try it.. You will be AMAZED AT HOW DELICIOUS IT IS. NANCY...11/15/12

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. Keep an eye on the smaller pan...as it will be done before the larger pie! ** NOTE: Nice to have the smaller one to taste....tee hee.

    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.
