Shortcut Pumpkin Pie

Does your family expect pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving dessert? Maybe you're in charge of making the pie for your Friendsgiving dinner this year. Whatever the case, this Shortcut Pumpkin Pie will help ease your baking duties this time around. With a pre-made graham cracker crust, pumpkin puree, eggs, evaporated milk and a few spices, you'll be on your way to pie heaven in just over an hour.
