Let's Be Yummy A Gluten Free way to enjoy life's pleasant delights
Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie recipe makes a flavorful, no frills pumpkin pie.
I have a simple life and I love it.
Don’t get me wrong, I love trying new, exotic things, especially food. But let’s face it, some things cannot be improved upon.
Take Pumpkin Pie.
Yes, I have tried to make my pumpkin pies exotic in the past. Let’s see….I’ve added coconut, pecans, tried to make it a German Chocolate wanna be, ground up raisins, cranberries; I think you get the picture. Some of the additions weren’t too bad and others were full body shudders!
A delicious simple pumpkin pie is my dessert of choice. It doesn’t need any frills or extra ingredients to make my taste buds do a high five.
I think I like simple pumpkin pie the best because it brings back the warm, comforting memories of my childhood.

Thanksgiving was THE extended family holiday. We would get together with great grandparents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and some additional folks who were not blessed with a large family. Thanksgiving was an All Day Affair. We ate, played outside, ate, played inside, ate, sat around telling funny stories and… ate again!
Pumpkin Pie, in its most basic form, was what I would eat later in the day. It was just sweet enough, not too messy (that means, I didn’t need a plate or fork, thank you, hands worked just fine!) It was filling without making me uncomfortable.
Yes, simple basic Pumpkin Pie is the dessert dreams are made of as far as I’m concerned.
