The other person who tested this recipe had some trouble with the baking time, but said her family loved the pie. Anyhow, thanks again.Gina Hyamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16221720465413252376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1236223126238037011.post-32632658638646025852010-09-17T12:03:01.645-04:002010-09-17T12:03:01.645-04:00yes - we measured the 8" pie plate too!!

I actually think it was the topping mixture of nutmeg and cinnamon - I think all cinnamon with a touch of nutmeg - we did equal parts and the nutmeg overwhelmed the taste.Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15524151014900872122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1236223126238037011.post-10518143790037422912010-09-17T11:50:39.623-04:002010-09-17T11:50:39.623-04:00Thanks, Carole and Karen, for testing this recipe....Thanks, Carole and Karen, for testing this recipe. Please confirm: Did you use an 8" pie pan as the recipe specified? It's a little smaller than the standard size and I'm wondering if that was the issue re: size for rolling out the dough. My sense is that for this pie to come out as intended, you really do need to use the evaporated milk. I very much appreciate your careful notes and am glad you two had a good time, even if you didn't like the pie!Gina Hyamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16221720465413252376noreply@blogger.com
