Pumpkin pie is a holiday tradition in North America, often making its way on to both the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner tables. The delicious dessert filling is made from creamy cooked pumpkin and seasoned with
spices including ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Traditional pumpkin pies have a bottom crust only, tart style, and are baked, cooled slightly, and served warm. The pie is often refrigerated and served chilled with a whipped topping garnish.
Pumpkin pie filling can be made from fresh pumpkin or pre-packaged pumpkin. Fresh pumpkins are available seasonally during the late fall, canned pumpkin can be found readily during the holidays and often throughout the remainder of the year.
Pumpkin pie filling which is pumpkin that has been pre-seasoned, and is ready for use in pie making, can also be found on supermarket shelves.
