With this recipe I had enough filling for 2 (two) frozen store bought 9″ Pies
Can I use more of this little pie pumpkin and less milk. Or can I freeze the uncooked pumpkin. Do not feel like baking all day.
Yes you can freeze it. If using a freezer bag, pack the frozen pumpkin into the bags and try to leave in as little air as possible. Hope that helps you out! You might want to measure it before putting in the bag and mark the measurements on the bag for other recipes. ๐ Not sure about the first question, sorry. Thanks Virginia!
