No.....without milk your filling will be heavy and more like a squash casserole than a pumpkin pie. Here's my recipe: Pumpkin pie 1 14 oz can Libby's pumpkin 1 cup sugar....half brown half white 1 1/2 tsps cinnamon 1 tsp ground ginger 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg 1/4 tsp cloves 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 1/2 cups milk.....for dairy free....use soy milk Pour into a10 inch pie shell and bake at 425 for 10 minutes, without opening the door, turn oven down to 350 and continue baking another 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If you use an oatmeal nut crust you will have a very difficult time serving from a molded tart pan....I vote for the ceramic pie plate. Linda C

Shambo, I often make my favorite apple cider brined pork loin, it's something everyone likes, from the gluten free to the meat eaters and a pork loin will serve lots of people. It works equally well with chicken, and the meat can be done on the grill with really good results. I've cut the salt down to half because I wanted the apple cider flavor, and it was still pretty good, I don't know if you could cut it out entirely or not. Cider Brined Pork Loin 3 cups water 3 cups apple cider 1/4 cup kosher salt 1 tablespoon black peppercorns 1 tablespoon coriander seeds 1 bay leaf 1 (2-pound) boneless pork loin, trimmed 2 cups apple cider Cooking spray 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Preparation Combine the first 6 ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring until salt dissolves. Remove from heat; cool. Pour brine into a 2-gallon zip-top plastic bag. Add pork; seal. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight, turning bag occasionally. Preheat oven to 350°. Bring 2 cups cider to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until cider has thickened and reduced to 1/4 cup (about 15 minutes). Set aside. Remove pork from bag; discard brine. Place pork on rack of a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Lightly coat pork with cooking spray. Combine rosemary, sage, and black pepper; sprinkle evenly over pork. Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until thermometer registers 155°, basting twice with cider reduction during final 20 minutes of cooking. Remove from oven; baste with remaining cider reduction. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Note: Overnight brining tenderizes the roast. If the cider reduction becomes too thick to brush on the pork, warm it in a saucepan over low heat. I've found that the Ronzoni and Mueller's gluten free pasta is actually pretty close to "regular", I can't tell the difference and neither can the kids, so big pasta dishes are a possibility, like steak tips with noodles or baked ziti. Turkey is always a "go to" in my family, and most of us like grilled salmon, glazed with some maple syrup. Kabobs are good for everyone too, and I make various marinades, using Bragg's Aminos instead of soy because it's gluten free, but it's still got sodium, so be careful with that if you're going the teriyaki route. AnnT's Salisbury steaks can be made gluten free easily, and are flavorful enough that the salt or other ingredients wouldn't be missed. I often make swiss steak to be served with rice or mashed potatoes, and pot roast is easy and can be made ahead without a lot of last minute prep. Most of all, just have fun! Annie

I just made the following cranberry sauce. It smells wonderful. I love nuts and truly wanted to put in the walnuts, but several who will be here tomorrow for Thanksgiving Dinner cannot have nuts, so I did not add them. Also, I could not find raspberry juice, but did find an Ocean Spray Cranberry-Raspberry and used that. PAUL’S HOMEMADE CRANBERRY SAUCE This stuff is to die for. Paul works in our frame shop in St. Augustine, and like us he loves to cook. When he offered to bring his homemade cranberry sauce to Thanksgiving dinner I didn't hesitate in accepting. Bursting with flavor it represents a delightful departure from the canned sauce we're all so used to. Wonderful flavors and the crunch of walnuts...mmmm...terrific. 1 cup real maple syrup 1 cup cranberry or raspberry juice 1 bag fresh cranberries 1 medium orange, zested 1 cup walnut halves or pieces Combine syrup, juice, zest and cranberries in saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower to medium heat and cook until cranberries pop open, about 10 minutes. Skim off any excess foam and add walnuts. Stir to combine and refrigerate to chill before serving.
