Maple Pumpkin Pie

[graphxgrrl]

Pie-making in recent years has become a political tug of war with my mother, due to the fact that my father has felt the need to declare my pies better. You'd think after 40 years of marriage he'd know better, apparently not

have you ever used unbleached flour for the pie crust?
i was thinking of trying it for my apple pie tomorrow :)

I only have ever bought unbleached flour since most commercial flours use chemicals rather than aging the flour properly.

yay! i dont have to go BACK to the store the day before thanksgiving! AWESOME :)

It shouldn't make a huge difference in general, I'd worry more about all-purpose vs. pastry flour than I would about bleached vs. unbleached.

I do not mess with the Libby's pie recipe. It feels so lame compared to your greatness.

As long as you're not relying on "pumpkin pie spice blend", I think you're okay. ;)

I use cloves, ginger, and cinnamon. :p

Mmm...sounds good.

I'm thinking about adding pecans to mine this year.

Hey! One of mine will have pecan streusel! Great minds and all that. ;)
