Not fond of nutmeg, so I substitute equal amounts of mace, even though it’s the covering of the nutmeg berry, it seems to make a big difference. I also add 1/2 tsp of allspice and probably added extra cinnamon. Pumpkin pie for Canadian thanksgiving is in the oven now. Oh, also added 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup to your pumpkin pie recipe! As always, your recipes are the best,
Many thanks!
