Will it still come out that well if we half the recipe? I only have 1 small can of pumpkin!
Hi JF, I’m sure you could. You’ll just make one pie instead of two.
I cut the recipe in half . It smells heavenly…. Still cookin….
It is amazing! Hope you love it!
I wanted to know if I made these two days prior and didn’t cook it right away but froze it will it be good
Just made this as two pies. With the regular crust it can make 3 so I’m guessing it’s two deep dish crust. I’m refrigerating the leftovers till I can get to the store tomorrow. I hope they keep!
Hi Jaime, my pie pans are regular. Did you check your pie pans to make sure they are 9 inches? There are 8 inch pie pans and even 6 inch pie pans. Either way, you can bake the leftovers in a casserole dish that’s sprayed with PAM. They will also be fine in the refrigerator until tomorrow as well.
How did you like the pie?
Hmm not sure. I just got the walmart premade ones in the freezer isle. It tasted GREAT! Even my hubby who dosent like pumpkin pie loved it!
Does this make two pies? Or do you use two pie crusts for the one pie?
Hi Kaylyn, This does make two pies. I’m sorry that wasn’t clear. I’ve updated the recipe.
Let me know what you think! 🙂
