Fall and pumpkins just go together, hand in hand! You love pumpkin pie, but are you just a little bit bored with the same old pumpkin pie recipe? Here are 12 unique and different pumpkin pie recipes – to put a special twist to your Fall and Thanksgiving!
Pumpkin pie is something that I only discovered once I moved to the USA. In England, where I am originally from, pumpkin pie didn’t feature on any menus during the Fall (or Autumn as they say there!). And of course in England they don’t have Thanksgiving.
But discovering pumpkin pie, once I moved here, was like a revelation! How could I have gone through my whole life up until that date, without ever tasting pumpkin pie?!
Now I can’t wait to make pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving, and any other excuse during the Fall! The whole process of making pumpkin pie is so wonderful. The smells, the textures, and of course – the taste!
But if you make the same old recipe for pumpkin pie year after year, you are probably getting a little bit bored and tired of it. So here are some really unique and different twists on the traditional pumpkin pie – to add a little bit of spice to your Fall!
