The easily availability of pumpkin across the globe made Pumpkin, an integral part of Thanksgiving. It was one of the ingredients which was a part of the celebration, either in a sweet format or savoury.
An early English recipe calls for the pumpkin to be hollowed and then stuffed with spiced, sweetened milk and cooking it directly in a fire. Understandably then it was the inside filling that was had as part of the
Thanksgiving feast rather than the crust, which was discarded.

Line up the pie mould with the pie crust base.
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
Mix all the ingredients together and pour into the lined-up pie mould.
Bake the pie at 220 degrees for 15 mins, then lower the temperature to 180 degrees and bake for 45 mins.
Check if the pie is done by inserting a toothpick into the centre of the pie. It should come out wet but relatively clean.
Allow the Pie to cool on a rack. Serve topped with fresh whipped cream.
