My Pumpkin Pie Recipe. I work with Fresh Pumpkin and Sweet Potatoes.

Bake a pie crust with butter. Make pumpkin pie filling. Bake 1 big sweet potato in foil 1-1/2 hours in 180C oven. Slice 1 Haikado pumpkin in half (*Not Halloween pumpkins) and roast in oven 1 hour 180C. Then puree sweet potato and pumpkin. Mix 1/2 c whipping cream. In food processor mix 3 eggs and 2 egg yolks, 2-1/2 c light brown sugar, 1/2 tsp white salt, 1-2 T cinnamon, 1 T ground ginger, 1/8 tsp nutmeg. Mix well. Add additional brown sugar & spices to your preference. Bake in 350°F/180°C oven approx. 50-60 min. Make sure to cover sides with foil while baking. Allow to cool. Add a side of whipped cream if desired.
