1 Heirloom Banana Pumpkin
12 oz. can evaporated milk
2 eggs
3/4 c. sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Cut pumpkin in half, remove seeds and skin. Dice meat and simmer in 1 - 1 1/2 c. water for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until creamy. (Add more water as needed if too thick.) Measure out 15 oz. pumpkin and cool down. (Extra pumpkin may be frozen). Whisk all ingredients together - may be slightly lumpy and place in 2 pie shells. Preheat oven at 450º. Bake at 450º for 20 minutes; reduce to 350º for 40 minutes. Let cool and serve.
