coco nutty pumpkin pie
This pie is out of this world delicious. If you like a custardy pumpkin pie, this is it. I remember as a kid my aunt making this. I called her today and got the recipe... Don't let the nuts and coconut deter you from trying this pie. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at just how good it is. Enjoy with a big dollop of whipped cream, you will be in pumpkin heaven... LOL! delicious!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
This recipe takes pumpkin pie up several notches. A cross between a coconut cream pie and pumpkin pie, it's a fantastic holiday dessert. Creamy, it has the texture of a coconut cream pie, with hints of pumpkin. We loved the addition of pecans and coconut. The pie doesn't have the traditional pumpkin spice so even those pumpkin pie haters will like this (we think). Hints of cinnamon linger in your mouth after each bite. A pretty pie for your holiday table.
