My great grandmother from England always made the best pumpkin pie, and the recipe has been passed along in the family for generations. When I became lactose intolerant, I was depressed by the notion that I would no longer be able to enjoy the pie at Thanksgiving because the original recipe was loaded with dairy. After a lot of experimentation and testing, I successfully converted the family recipe to a dairy free version I can enjoy, while maintaining the flavor and consistency of the pie that has made it such a hit. Family members who have tasted this new version were unable to tell a difference.
