  • “Loved this recipe! I tried out a few others, but this one was awesome! I grind my own cloves and nutmeg so that flavors are more intense…one word: Masterpiece!”

  • “i was wondering where the milk went in but i put it in the mix right before baking just so iwas not missing anything.”

  • “It doesn’t say what you do with the milk.I had no clue on what to do with the milk.So i poured it into the pie mixture, my pie came out kinda runny.Was that what I was supposed to to with the milk?The cloves weren’t a pleasant surprise when i was eating the pie.Can we adjust the recipe by blending the cloves or mincing them some how?”

  • “We loved this recipe and will not be saving it for halloween alone. The flesh from two large pumpkins made four large and six mini pies (great for the lunchbox). Ah, the taste of autumn.”

  • “This was really easy.I made 25 tarts and still have a little filling left over.Very yummy and super simple!”

  • “This was an incredibly simple pie and quite tasty.However, I did not see when to add the milk and I found the cooking time too short, even for a smaller pie shell than is recommended.For me, this made two 8 1/2″ pies and I cooked them for about 55 minutes.I also added the milk along with the spices, salt and sugar.Still- great if you’re short on ingredients and time!”
