Guests often bring additional desserts to Thanksgiving dinner, but if

you've had no such offers, you might want to double this recipe and make 2

pies.

 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

 

Place the pumpkin, egg, sugar, applesauce, and spices in the container of a

food processor or blender Process until very smoothly pureed. Pour into

the pie crust.

 

In a small bowl, stir the streusel ingredients together and quickly stir in

the margarine until all the dry ingredients are lightly coated. Sprinkle

evenly over the pumpkin filling. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the crust

is golden and the filling is set. Let cool. Serve at room temperature.
