Ingredients

Here's what you'll need to create this heavenly pumpkin pie:

  • 1 (9-inch) pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 can (15 oz) pure pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to whip up your delicious pumpkin pie:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. If you're using a homemade pie crust, roll it out and place it into a 9-inch pie dish. Crimp the edges as desired. If using a store-bought crust, just place it in the dish and move on to the next step.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and salt. Stir until well blended.
  4. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, gradually mix in the evaporated milk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  5. Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 35-40 minutes, or until the filling has set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Once done, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. It can be served warm or chilled.
  8. For extra flair, top your pumpkin pie with freshly whipped cream before serving!

This perfect pumpkin pie is sure to be a hit at any gathering! Its creamy texture and warm spices make it an irresistible treat. Enjoy every slice!
