Tips:
- Choose the right pumpkin: Look for a sugar pumpkin or pie pumpkin, which are small and have a deep orange color.
- Roast the pumpkin: Roasting the pumpkin intensifies its flavor and makes it easier to puree.
- Use a food processor or blender: This will help you get a smooth and creamy puree.
- Add spices: Pumpkin pie spice is a classic, but you can also experiment with other spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice.
- Don't overcook the pumpkin pie: The center of the pie should still be slightly jiggly when you take it out of the oven.
