Description

Indulge in the timeless comfort of a velvety pumpkin pie, perfectly spiced and nestled in a flaky crust. Ideal for fall gatherings or a cozy dessert any time of year.


Ingredients

  • 1 unbaked pie crust

  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin purée (about 2 cups)

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves or allspice

  • 3/4 cup whole milk

  • 3/4 cup heavy cream

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves until smooth.

  • Add the milk, cream, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Whisk until fully combined.

  • Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust.

  • Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

 

  • Allow the pie to cool completely before serving.

Notes

For a smoother texture, strain the pumpkin filling before pouring it into the crust.

Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor
