Just in time for Thanksgiving, Nestlé Kitchens offers a deliciously unique look at pumpkin pie. Six talented bloggers have taken this traditional dessert and put six different spins on it using Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin and Libby’s Easy Pumpkin Pie Mix. Thanksgiving just became a whole lot more interesting with these fantastic recipes!

Erika from In Erika’s Kitchen turns pumpkin pie into the ultimate comfort food with her Pumpkin Pie Rice Pudding. To make it even more enticing, the basic recipe is gluten-free!
