Pumpkin Pie

This is good size pie so I use a full size pie dish.  I mix all the ingredients in a food processor, a bowl or mixer works fine also.  The recipe varies from Grace's, original amounts in parenthesis.

2        cups mashed pumpkin  (1 1/4 cups)
3        eggs, beaten   (2 eggs)
1/2     cup sugar
1        teaspoon salt
1        pinch pepper
1        teaspoon ground ginger
1        teaspoon cinnamon
1/2     teaspoon nutmeg
1/8     teaspoon cloves
1        teaspoon soft butter
1        cup milk

If you use fresh pumpkin, cook in salted water until tender, drain well and mash.

Beat all ingredients in order given. 
Place in 9 in pie plate in uncooked crust.
Bake in 350 deg. F. oven about 50 minutes, or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
