4 eggs

3 TBS flour

Directions:  Mix all with mixer.  Pour into 2 deep dish pie crusts.  Bake at 425 

degrees for 10 minutes, then 375 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

Comment:  If you want to make ahead, I have made the filling the day before and 

then poured into the crust to bake the following day and it worked great.  This is 

Kory's  favorite Pumpkin pie.
