Felicity ! I made this for early Thanksgiving dinner with my mother last weekend – insanely delicious, and even better the next morning. I made two ( lots of filling) and brought the second one to school for faculty eating between conferences.

I bookmarked the recipe last year and am glad I finally got to it..thanks !

See you daily after the break, I hear .

Love,

Debby

Jeannine —

I have accidentally had some incredible scones that were vegan and gluten-free, from Petunia’s Pastries in Portland — and from their website they use a lot of millet flour and flax seed and stuff? (No hives, so it can’t have been almond flour ;) I bet those could make a decent pie crust! (They make pies too, but I haven’t tried ’em!)

As I said, the caramel is pretty subtle — no more, I would guess from smell, than in a pecan pie or something? But technically, it’s there. WE HAVE THE SCIENCE!

This looks fantastic! I think I might want to try a crustless version (or figure out a gluten-free-sugar-cookie type crust) but it sounds amazing! Glenn is actually a really good caramel maker – he even makes coconut milk caramels for people who can’t tolerate the cream in regular caramels! But I think his training as a chemist makes him abnormally good at candy making. The one time I tried it, I got hard sticky stuff stuck the bottom of the pan – not encouraging!
