Gingerbread-Spiced Pumpkin Pie image

The first time I made this was for Christmas a couple of years ago. The following year, I received a gift with all the ingredients for the pie in it and a note asking me to make it again as soon as possible. Make extra pastry if you want to decorate the top.-Rod Dombek, Mazeppa, Minnesota

I love that this recipe uses whole wheat flour. It makes the pie a little healthier.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pie turned out perfectly. I think the key is to use fresh ingredients and to not overmix the dough.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie didn't turn out well. The crust was soggy and the filling was runny.

Overall, this is a good recipe. With a few tweaks, it could be even better.

The pie was a bit bland. I think I should have added more spices to the filling.

The crust was a bit too hard for my liking. I think I should have rolled it out thinner.

The pie was a bit dry. I think I should have added more liquid to the filling.

This pie was a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less ginger in the crust.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of gingerbread, but I'm so glad I did. The gingerbread crust is subtle and the pumpkin filling is delicious. This pie is a keeper!

This is the best pumpkin pie I've ever had. The gingerbread crust is a game-changer. It adds a delicious warmth and spice to the pie. I will never make pumpkin pie without gingerbread crust again.
