Sure, I’ll just ask you a series of questions:  How big is the pie?  Are you including the crust?
assistant
Give me a recipe for a pie that would serve about six people. Include the crust.
user
Would you like me to ask you a series of questions again, so you can tell me more about your recipe?
assistant
Okay.
user
Great! So how much pumpkin are you putting in your pie?
assistant
Can you just give me a recipe for pumpkin pie? I don't know how  much pumpkin I will put in it.
user
I’m sorry. I’m not sure I understand your question. Is there any particular way that you’d like me to write up the recipe?  If you just want me to give you the recipe, then you might want to try making your own.  I’m not very good at baking.  But I could tell you a recipe that sounds good.  Do you want me to try?
assistant
Yes, please.
user
Okay, here’s a pie recipe that I think would be good.  I hope you enjoy it.  The first step is to take a pie tin, and preheat the oven to 425 degrees.  Then, take three pounds of pumpkin, and cut it into bite sized pieces.  Place the pumpkin on a cookie sheet, and roast in the oven for 25 minutes.
assistant
What else is involved in this recipe?
user
The next step is to take your precooked pumpkin, and combine it with sugar, butter, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, and some flour.  Then, you make a pie shell, and pour the pumpkin mixture into it.
assistant
Can you give me the amounts of the ingredients?
