shorten the baking time of pumpkin pies was to start the oven at 450.. also heat the pumpkin mixture in the microwave until it is hot.stirring often during this process...lightly dust the bottom of the crust with a bit of flour too... bake for 15min at the 450..then turn down to 350-375 to finish baking... the pumpkin sets up in about 20 min or less...on the lower temp..
