My Grandson's Christian and Brandon went on class trip to the pumpkin patch. Boy! they were so excited to pick pumpkin's. Christian came home with two pumpkins and Brandon had one. They both said, "Grandma, Can you make us a pumpkin pie." "I never taste pumpkin pie, before." Brandon says "do you know how to make it? I said, "I think I can, I'll give it a try."This was my first time ever making a pumpkin pie, I wanted it to be my very own recipe, so I looked into my cabinets for some ingredients and came up with what I thought was best in my grand-boy' pumpkin pie, besides much love.

1 pkgpie crust shell

How to Make Grandma's Pumpkins
- In a large pot cut pumpkin into large squares, boil for about 15 to 20 minutes. In a separate bowl, add milk, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, butter and maple syrup. These are Grandma's two Pumpkins.
- When pumpkin is complete and soft, peel and dispose top layer of skin and put it into the food processor and puree until ready. Place the pie mixture into the crust shell, and bake at 325 degrees for about 40 to 45 minutes. These three pies, were their portion and they love it.
