Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Made this to bring to Thanksgiving gathering of friends. Flavor was exceptional. Rave reviews. Used my go-to Bon Appetit crust recipe. Even though well chilled the crust did shrink considerably when blind baked. I did a second crust in a pyrex rather than metal pan and the results were even more disastrous. My recipe is very similar to the one Richard Sax suggests using so not sure what the issue was. Because of the crust issue there was about 1/2 cup+ of filling left over. Nonetheless, the pie itself was excellent, the best pumpkin pie I've had. Spice combo was perfect and the rum added nice back note of flavor.

    Substituted 3 T maple syrup for 3 T white sugar, as suggested in the recipe. This was excellent. I couldn't believe people had seconds of it on Thanksgiving.
