I've made pumpkin pie (minus the crust) and it's just fine...serve in a dish suitable for pudding.

Ah, yes. But minus the crust makes it hard to "fool" your family and guests who are diet averse into thinking they are eating pie. You have to call it pumpkin custard! :~)

Many, many folks skip the crust, anyway, but they always expect it to be there.
