Pumpkin Pie
- 1 Pumpkin

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Remove stem from pumpkin and slice in half. Scrape out seeds (set aside if roasting is desired) and place pumpkin cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour about a half cup of water in pan and bake about one hour or until you can pierce it with a fork.
Let it cool and then peel the pumpkin meat into a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
Put pumpkin puree (roughly 4C) into a bowl and add condensed milk, cream, cornstarch, molasses, oil, spices and eggs. Mix thoroughly.
Pour filling into a crust and bake about one hour or until filling has set. Transfer pie to a rack and cool for 30 minutes. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
