Easy Pumpkin Pie Recipe
Here’s an inviting image of what you can expect your pie to look like after baking:
Ingredients
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
- 1 can (15 ounces) pure pumpkin puree
- 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, sugar, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
- Once the filling is ready, pour it into the unbaked pie crust. Make sure to fill it evenly to achieve a beautiful pie once it’s baked.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any spills and put it in the preheated oven. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 35-40 minutes. The pie is done when a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack. This helps the filling set and enhances the flavors.
- Once cooled, serve the pie plain or with a dollop of whipped cream for that little extra treat!
