Yield: 8 Servings
 
Ingredients
  1   Envelope Knox Unflavored Gelatin  
  3/4  c Dark brown sugar Firmly packed  
  1/2  ts Salt  
  1/2  ts Nutmeg  
  1  ts Cinnamon  
  1/2  c Milk  
  1/4  c Water  
  3   Egg yolks  
  1 1/2  c Canned pumpkin  
  3   Egg whites beaten stiff  
  1/4  c Sugar  
  9   Inch baked pie shell  
 
Instructions
 
  New light-and-luscious recipe for a traditional spicy pumpkin pie. Perfect dessert after a big holiday dinner. And do-ahead easy with Kaiser Quilted Foil.

 
  1. Mix first 5 ingredients in top of double boiler.

 
  2. Stir in milk, water, egg yolks, pumpkin. Mix well. Place over boiling water. Cook stirring constantly, until gelatin dissolves and mixture is heated through, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Chill until mixture mounds when dropped from spoon. Beat egg whites stiff and beat in sugar. Fold in gelatin mixture. Turn into baked pie shell.

 
  3. For 9" Pie Shell: No floured board needed. Roll 12" circle of pastry dough on 14" square of Kaiser Broiling Foil. Lift foil and pastry into pie plate; fit gently to plate. Flute pastry rim. Prick bottom and sides of pastry. Bake 10 minutes at 450F or until evenly brown; foil prevents over-browning. Cool. Heap filling into shell. Wrap loosely in foil. Refrigerate overnight. Serves 8. Garnish with whipped cream if desired.
