This is a delicious pie that I made 20 years ago and will be dusting off to make this year. Peeling and cutting raw pumpkin is time consuming so I’m going to use precut butternut squash from Costco to save a step.
I found that if the squash is sliced, or steamed a little before baking, it cooks more quickly. I really like this pie, but it's usually a hard sell at more traditional holiday gatherings.
