Pumpkin Season!



It's after Labor Day. It's fall! What's the flavor of fall? Pumpkin!

The coffeeshop where I work now has pumpkin lattes, which means that I'm about to drink my weight in the syrup. :) I made pumpkin ice cream, but it only used half of my pumpkin puree. There wasn't enough material for a whole pie, and I don't have enough time in the morning to make pumpkin pancakes. So.... I decided to halve a recipe and make half a crust recipe and make mini pies!



My mom got me this mini-pie pan years ago, and I haven't used it once until this year. It happens to be the perfect size for a mixed berry pie with just one or two of each berry per bite, and the ideal thing for just a little treat. It's divine if you use a little pumpkin spice in the pie crust too. Yum!
