Because your pumpkin pie deserves a glow-up.

One time I made a pumpkin pie and forgot to add sugar.
It was as gross as you’re free to imagine, but my family smiled and ate it.

So it’s not a surprise that adding a little orange zest to pumpkin pie works the same way.
Adding orange zest won’t make your pie taste like orangeit’ll be subtle in the best way.
How To Add Orange Zest to Pumpkin Pie
Adding orange zest to your pumpkin pie is easy.
Sarah Fritsche
Grab a rasp (I like theMicroplane) and lightly grate the outside skin of the orange.
Use mild pressure to avoid getting any of the bitter white pith underneath the skin.
One medium orange should yield about one tablespoon of zest.
The zest can easily be folded into whipped cream.
Then add dollops to pie slices and be prepared for plenty of oohs and aahs.
