Ingredients
  

  • 1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
  • 1 15-ounce can pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Whipped cream for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Have all your ingredients ready to go.
  2. Place your unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges decoratively. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree and sweetened condensed milk, stirring until smooth.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition until just incorporated.
  5. Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Stir until all spices are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
  6. Pour the filling into the chilled pie crust. Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
  7. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out clean.
  8. The center may still look slightly jiggly but will firm up as it cools. If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil or a pie shield.
  9. Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack (about 2 hours) before slicing.
  10. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 3 days.
