After last year’s struggles with the gluten free pie crust mix, I’ve decided to make a pumpkin dessert that does not require a crust.

This year we’re going to a friend’s home for Thanksgiving. I’ve been asked to bring dessert. Besides the Pumpkin Streusel Cheesecake, I’d like to make a traditional (or not-so-traditional) pumpkin pie. But which one?
