The first recorded history of Pumpkin Pie came in the 1796 cookbook called American Cookery, by an American Orphan by Amelia Simmons. It was the first American cookbook written and published here, and the first with recipes for foods native to America. Simmons’ pumpkin puddings were baked in a crust and similar to present-day pumpkin pies.
