Pumpkin Pie Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

1 Start by preheating your oven to 425°F.
2 In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree and eggs until well
blended. In another bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves,
ensuring the spices are evenly distributed. Gradually mix the dry ingredients
into the pumpkin mixture until fully incorporated. Slowly stir in the evaporated
milk, blending until smooth.
3 Pour the pumpkin filling into the unbaked pie crust, being careful not to
overfill. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F for 15 minutes.
After the initial baking time, lower the oven temperature to 350°F and continue
baking for an additional 40 to 50 minutes, or until the pie is fully set. To
check for doneness, gently shake the pie; the center should have a slight jiggle
but will firm up as it cools. Alternatively, you can test it by inserting a
sharp knife into the center—if it comes out clean, the pie is ready.
4 Once baked, allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. For
an extra touch, garnish with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel pecan
topping, if desired.
