I made this pie recipe for Thanksgiving last week and it turned out great!
I got the recipe from a local paper (The Portland Mercury).

First, buy or make a 9″ crust.

Then Cream together:
½ cup butter
1 ½ c. sugar and
1 Tbsp flour

Add in two eggs, beat well.

Stir in:
1 ½ cup pumpkin (fresh or canned–I actually used frozen ’cause I grew my own this year:) )
1/4 tsp cinnamon
4 Tbsp whiskey (or more, I used 6 Tbsp Jim Beam)
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp allspice

Bake at 450 for 15 minutes, then turn down the heat to 375 for 45 minutes. I actually ended up cooking it about 15 minutes longer than the recipe called for–I’m not sure if it needed more time because of the consistency of the pumpkin or because I used more whisky–nonetheless it turned out good in the end! Add some fresh whipped cream and enjoy–Yum!
