Pumpkin Pie
2 cups cooked pumpkin (canned is fine)
1 cup light brown sugar
1 Tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon allspice
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups half 1/2&1/2 or light cream
2 tablespoons brandy (optional but very good)
Combine sugar, spices, salt and flour. Stir into pumpkin. Beat in eggs and then 1/2&1/2 and brandy. Pour into a 9-inch pie shell and bake on lower rack of oven at 425 degrees F. for 15 minutes; turn oven to 350'. Bake about 20 to 30 minutes longer or until just set. Don't let it over bake or it will crack. Remove when it almost stops jiggling in the center. Don't pierce with knife to test unless you have to because that makes it crack, too.
