Punch Pilgrim Pie

A Punch Family Thanksgiving Tradition . . . 

Pilgrim Pie

When Daughter Sarah joined the Punch family, 

she discovered a new (for her) traditional Thanksgiving food

Pilgrim Pie

"Aunt Jo" always made Pilgrim Pie -- for every Thanksgiving.

And although Thanksgiving always included Pumpkin Pie,

it was the Pilgrim Pie that everyone asked for.

Daughter Sarah was excited about the pie and the next year

(although I never tasted it)

Jo shared the recipe with me.

But I'm not to share it with anyone!

And I haven't

The last few years we've become part of the Punches extended family

and are invited to share Thanksgiving with them.

I, like the rest of the Punch family, now think Thanksgiving

isn't complete  without a Pilgrim Pie.

I looked for the recipe on-line and it isn't there although there are references to

Pilgrim Pie -- but most are really pumpkin pies.

The Pilgrim Pie as Jo makes it isn't.

(At least not under the title "Pilgrim Pie")

So, as I promised, Jo -- the recipe is our secret.

(And no, it contains nary a pumpkin or a cranberry in it)

We ate our fill yesterday of turkey and dressing and potatoes and sweet potatoes and cranberries

But did manage to have our annual slice of

Pilgrim Pie!

It's Friday and I'm joining Michael at Rattlebridge Farm for Foodie Friday.
