Sure - it seems like a nice idea, but if I'm lacking evaporated milk, it's not like I've really got egg nog laying around either. Another reviewist suggested substituting with half and half or cream. That makes more sense to me.

I have not tried this pie, but it sounds very good. I have used a can of pumpkin
pie mix, used the recipe on the back of the can and substituted the evaporated
milk with the same amount of sweetened condensed milk. Quick, easy, and
gooood.

ignore my rating...i have not made this pie but it sounds fairly good. my mom always make her signature pumpkin pie with half-and-half or heavy cream instead of the recommened evaprated milk. just use the same amount of the half and half or cream that you would evap. milk. makes a huge difference!

My family and I loved this recipe. I wanted to try something a little different from the evaporated milk recipe that a lot of people use. And yes, during the Christmas/Thanksgiving holidays, I usually have eggnog on hand as opposed to evaporated milk which made this recipe handy. Also, if you can use a thicker, sweeter liquid for something as opposed to plain, dull evaporated milk, then the pie is all the better. I used a small 15 oz can of pumpkin purree. Though it is good to mention that when baking this pie, it is like a custard pie and will still jiggle a little when taken out of the oven, but will set up beautifully after it rests. This pie was so moist and flavorful! The spices really can out in the taste so that it wasn't bland or plain. Your guests will remember your delightful pie! I whole-heartedly recommend this recipe. Oh, I used the Southern Comfort brand of eggnog which is great on it own and even better with the pie.

While i'm sure this recipe is delicious, there is no way it is a solution to having no evaporated milk around.

I mean...lets be real, who really has eggnog laying around the house? If i have to go to store to buy it, I might as well just get the evaporated milk!

I made this pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving and it was a hit! It was so easy to make, and it turned out light and creamy. I had to increase the temperature to 375 degrees and increase the baking time to 50 mins for high altitude baking.
