NOTES:
* A Pumpkin Pie with flour -- This is my mother's recipe for her traditional Thanksgiving dinner pumpkin pie. It is different from most other pumpkin pie recipes in that flour and brown sugar are used in the batter. Even my wife, who is not a big pumpkin pie fan, thought this was a yummy pie.
* Make sure you get just pumpkin. Don't use a can of "pumpkin pie mix" instead! If you were very ambitious, you could get a pumpkin yourself for this recipe, but I have never had the time or courage to do that.
* You can buy a pie shell crust or you can make your own. Certainly, the results are better when you make your own.
* Light brown sugar can be used instead of dark, but the result isn't as good.
Difficulty: easy to moderate. Time: 20 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooking, plus desired cooling time. : Precision: measure the ingredients, especially the spices.
