Pour flour mixture into pumpkin mixture and mix with mixer to combine ingredients. Pour into a 10 inch deep dish pie plate that has been sprayed with cooking oil. I cook my pie placed on a baking sheet in case of spills in a preheated 425 degree oven for 15 minutes.

Turn heat down to 350 and cook for an addition 40 minutes. Check center to see if done. Remove from oven and let set for 30 minutes before cutting. Serve plain or with ice cream or whipped cream on top.
