Traditional American pumpkin pie
A long-serving American tradition is to serve up a slice of warm, tasty pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving and Halloween. With a sweet yet slightly spicy twist, it has a similar taste to gingerbread and goes down a treat. An easy oven-baked dessert, this pumpkin pie is simple and easy to make and perfect for serving to friends and family during the holiday season - or even all year round.
