PUMPKIN CHIFFON PIE, WITH ORANGE TINGE

- Bake piecrust and set aside. In a 2 qt. saucepan stir together gelatin, spices, and sugar. In a separate bowl beat together egg yolks and milk, add to sauce pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil. Add pumpkin, orange zest and juice to saucepan and combine well. Transfer to mixing bowl and chill until set.

Top with whipped cream and serve. *If using a whipped cream dispenser you can add different flavors for a lovely addition to this pie. Try adding pumpkin pie spices, vanilla, ginger, or your favorite liqueur, like Kahlua.
Tips:
- Choose the right pumpkin: For the best flavor and texture, use a sugar pumpkin or a small pie pumpkin. These pumpkins have a sweeter, denser flesh that is perfect for pies.
- Roast the pumpkin: Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and intensifies its flavor. Be sure to roast the pumpkin until it is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
- Use a food processor: A food processor makes quick and easy work of pureeing the pumpkin. Be sure to use a food processor with a sharp blade.
- Add spices: Pumpkin pie spice is a classic blend of spices that perfectly complements the flavor of pumpkin. You can also add other spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, to taste.
- Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeating the eggs can make the pie filling tough. Beat the eggs just until they are combined.
- Bake the pie in a water bath: Baking the pie in a water bath helps to prevent the crust from cracking and the filling from curdling.
