pumpkin pie

Recipe by

From the back label of a can of Farmer's Market™ brand organic pumpkin puree. I did some switching and arranging of ingredients. I usually use a homemade standard pie shell for this recipe. However, this year for Thanksgiving I made a simple graham cracker pie shell and we really liked it. Note: the coconut milk and brown sugar replace one 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk. I reduced the amount of ground ginger and cinnamon; added the ground cardamom.
