Chef's Note & Story
Inspired by LIBBY'S Famous Pumpkin Pie recipe turned healthy.
I made this for the first time for Thanksgiving dinner and was so impressed, as was my family. I felt bad because my Mom always makes the pumpkin pie and since I made this, I'm getting requests to make it again this year! It was also very easy.
I love Pumpkin pie and it reminds me of Thanksgiving as it is my family's traditional Thanksgiving dessert.
