Made this and loved it!! The roasting really makes the pumpkins take on a nutty, roasted flavor that is terrific!
I agree, giving 1 star because you don't understand an intermediate recipe is terrible!! Perhaps they should stick to basic, entry level recipes!!

Use One and one half to two cans PLAIN pumpkin instead of baking pumpkins...but don't use the preflavored with cinnamon and sugar canned pumpkin pie filling.

When Tyler was making this he could put all ingredients for pie into a large food processor...

Also...if you are trying to put a 9" worth of pumpkin filling into an 8" pie pan, you will be sorry. Can you spell overflow?

I agree...complaining about a recipes missing instruction IS NOT WHAT REVIEW IS FOR...you are supposed to be reviewing the TASTE.

Add your comments requesting amounts to foodnetwork here but also send them an email to fix the problem. I have seen them fix recipes before.

Are those the basic pumpkins (prob about 6" diameter you get at the grocery store? Or a more specific type?
I live in Austin, TX if it is a regional thing...
I watched Tyler Florence make this the other night on TV and it looked amazing...can't wait to try it!

I saw that this recipe had only 3 stars, which is a statement on the quality of the END PRODUCT. Meaning you have tried the recipe and rated it accordingly. Rating a recipe based on a confusing term or left out instruction is unfair and misleading to readers. The rating should be based on how the product turned out, not a technical error having nothing to do with the quality of the product. I apologize for this rant, but I come across this often and it's really bothersome. If there is an error, simply add it to the end of your post and e-mail your comment to the foodnetwork site. Just don't incorporate it into the rating. Thank you.

(it's making me give a rating even though I haven't tried the recipe, so i'm giving it 5 stars to balance out the bad ratings.

2 Cups of Pumpkin Puree is equal to 1 Sugar Pumpkin. This recipe was rated for Intermediate cooks so they probably assumed one new that. I usuallly go to the Farmers market and Puree 12+ pumpkins in the fall and then freeze them in 2 Cup portions. Easy Pie, Bread and now Meringue! As for using Canned Pumpkin, Canned has less water content so expect your pie to crack and be less than Superb if you go this route. I thought this crust rolled amazing, I would suggest using browned Bananas for roasting. If you use firm yellow bananas they have trouble browning. I would rate this recipe a five. It will be served on Turkey Day!

This receipe looks really good, and I will try it. But to go through the trouble and time to roast pumpkins is a waste of time (in my opinion. I did this once and the pie didn't taste any different than if I used canned pumpkin.

To roast bananas? I don't see why this is necessary either. I think if you use really ripe bananas, they should be fine.

Telling people to use two sugar pumkins does not work as they are different sizes. Need a weight or volume of pumkin to add please.
