Festal Golden Pumpkin Pie

When it comes to canned foods, my mom has always told me to get Festal brand, for that is what her mom always told her. "It's the best!" she would say. Festal is distributed by the Owatonna Canning Company, of Owatonna, Minnesota, so it is actually pretty close to home. This is the recipe on Festal's Golden Pie Pumpkin. It's delicious! I like it best served cold. When I make it, there seems to be a lot extra after filling the one 9-inch pie crust, so I just divide the filling between two crusts. It makes 2 smaller pies, but that way none goes to waste!
