Rachel made it the following night - no water bath - and with more pumpkin (1c.) as you had suggested. A huge success! Love you!
Anna - would you recommend these changes? Thanks for sharing!
I can't think of any reason for the water bath except to keep it from cracking maybe? And to heat it evenly??? It's probably more trouble than it's worth to put it in water. So go with Rachel's way!
And I think, sure! Use more pumpkin! You'll probably have some leftover that won't fit in the pan and you can make a little sample for yourself that way, too :)
