There are an endless plethora of pumpkin pie recipes. Seems like every recipe has its own unique combination of spices and other additives. When deciding which recipe to use, where do you begin? You should first decide what your objective is. Do you want the best tasting pumpkin pie anyone has ever eaten or are you limited on time? If your time is limited, you’ll want to look for a recipe listed as Quick and Easy.

Pumpkin pie recipes normally fall into two categories: Classic (or Traditional) and Quick and Easy. Regardless of the type you choose, either one will taste a lot better than any store-bought pumpkin pie. The classic or traditional pie recipe typically calls for 5 types of spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and ground cloves.) The quick and easy recipes either recommend canned pie filing, which already includes the spices, or calls for premade pumpkin spice blend. If you to intend to make more than one pie, check out our article on How To Make Pumpkin Pie Spice.

Making a pumpkin pie from scratch is very time consuming, especially if you’re making both the crust and the filling. The crust will take several hours including refrigeration time. Making your own creamy pumpkin filling will take almost 2 hours. If you have sugar pumpkins and want to make your own filling from scratch, see our article on How To Make Pumpkin For a Pumpkin Pie.
