At 65 cents a slice, Pumpkin Banana Pie is a fun twist on the traditional Pumpkin Pie! Like the traditional pie, you can top it with whipped cream. We found introducing bananas made it lighter in taste. Enjoy at room temperature or cold from the refrigerator.

In a separate small bowl mix together spice ingredients.
Stir the spices into the wet ingredients.
Pour into an unbaked pie crust using a 9-inch pie pan.
Place aluminum foil or a pie shield around the crust edge since it tends to burn.
Place your pie on a cookie sheet to make it easier to place in the oven and to retrieve.
Bake in a 400 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes until set or internal temperature reaches 174 degrees. Cool on a cooling rack before cutting.

Place aluminum foil or a pie shield around the crust edge since it tends to burn. If the pie crust edges does not brown, then remove the pie shield near the end of the baking time.
If you forget to protect the pie edges and find it is browning too much, then remove the pie from the oven and add the pie shield.
