After a multitude of pumpkins put in the compost each year, it is high time to savor this cucurbit other than in sugary coffee from a large chain.
Here's a pumpkin pie recipe that will impress your guests:
Servings: 8
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Ingredients :
- A medium sized pumpkin
- A pie crust from the market

- Spread the pie dough on an aluminum plate.

- Then place the pie on the BBQ for indirect cooking for 30 to 40 minutes or until you can prick it with a fork and it comes out clean.

You can add homemade whipped cream flavored with Baileys or Gâteau seasoning to your pie.
