use a longneck pumpkin or butternut squash. cut into 2-3 inch slices. remove seeds. place in pan (face-down) with a little water in the bottom for 45 minutes or until "fork soft" (meaning you can poke throught it easily with a fork). cut out the meat and crush it lightly with a fork.

for each pie, use:

2 tbsp butter
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp flour
1 tsp vanilla

mix the wet ingredients together, then add the pumpkin, then add the dry ingredients.

bake at 425 for the first ten minutes
bake at 350 for an additional 30-40 minutes

the pie is done when it is "springy"

sprinkle the top with cinnamon while hot
