Filling: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine pumpkin, sweetener, salt, and spices, blending well. Blend in eggs, milk, and evaporated milk. Pour into unbaked pastry shell and bake until a knife inserted between center and outside comes out clean. Cool to room temperature before serving. Pie Crust: Sift flour and salt together; dribble margarine over surface. Stir with a fork until completely mixed. Add water to margarine and flour mixture. Stir until a smooth ball is formed. Roll out dough to fit pie pan. Place in pie pan and flute edges with a fork. Refrigerate if crust is to be filled prior to baking. If baked unfilled, make several cuts with a sharp knife in bottom and sides of crust. Bake at 450 degrees F. for 13 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown
