This is the week for pumpkin pie, and there are so many different variations on this delicious holiday dessert. This recipe is from my friend Jes, and it’s one of the best pumpkin pies I’ve had. There are so many different flavors in this pie and they all blend together absolutely perfectly. The texture is perfect, it’s not too firm – it’s perfectly creamy. The streusel topping adds fantastic texture and just the right touch of sweetness. The whipped cream is so soft and luscious, it really completes the experience.
If you love pumpkin pie, give this fantastic pumpkin bread a try next. It pairs wonderfully with a spiced latte or chai tea. Or these super delicious pumpkin muffins with cream cheese and cheesecake frosting.
