Mrs V's Pumpkin Pie

"Everyone loves this pumpkin pie even people who usually eat pumpkin pie. Originally from a Grange cookbook I adapted it so my son and I could eat it as we are allergic to milk. It has a wonderful texture and is just delicious. Doesn't taste like it's 209 calories."

Delicious! We put it in a macadamia nut pie shell for a gluten and dairy free pumpkin pie. Took a little longer to bake than the recipe called for.

I was in a bit of a rush when I made this and it still turned out alright.... As lactose intollerance rules out a lot of deserts, this was a great treat! I used soy instead of rice milk. Thanks!
