Gingered Pumpkin Pie

This great tasting pie is one I serve on special occasions like Thanksgiving, Xmas or Easter. The ginger comes through perfectly in this recipe. Serve this with whipped cream or ice cream or enjoy it as is.



INGREDIENTS
Crust
1 1/2 cups GF graham crumbs
1/4 cup palm coconut sugar
6 tablespoons melted butter

Filling
2 eggs
1/2 of a (796ml) can pumpkin pure
1 cup palm coconut sugar or brown sugar
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Dash ground cloves
Pinch salt
Grated candied ginger for garnish (optional)

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Mix together the crust ingredients and press into the bottom and sides, but not the flat edge of a deep dish pie plate (it will work its way over the edge as it cooks); set aside.
Whisk the eggs in a large bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients; pour into the pie shell.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and place in the preheated oven; cook for 15 minutes, reduce heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for another 35 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow cooling completely.
Enjoy!
