Author original recipe from Joy of Cooking by Erma Rombauer

Ingredients

  • 6 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1/8 tsp cloves
  • 1/2 cup dark corn syrup
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked or canned pumpkin
  • 1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
  • 1 tsp rum flavoring

Instructions

  1. Blend sugars, salt, spices, corn syrup, and eggs.  Add pumpkin, evaporated milk and flavoring.

  2. Pour into 9" pie crust and bake at 425 degrees for an hour or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. 

Recipe Notes

You can pour any extra filling into small baking dishes and bake on a cookie sheet about 20 minutes.  

I do use a store bought pie crust for this sometimes.
