I had some pumpkin puree and I made 2 pumpkin pie recipes to compare. They were both delicious but I think this one was better because of the condensed milk. The condensed milk added a bit more of a custardy texture and a creamy flavor. The coconut on top was a great addition.
Ginger Pumpkin Pie with Toasted Coconut
Ginger and coconut add warm, flavorful accents to this Thanksgiving classic. If you'd like a dollop of something creamy, top with fat-free whipped topping.
