Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roll out the pie crust and place it into a 9-inch pie pan. Crimp the edges and set aside.

  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the evaporated milk until fully combined.
  5. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 40–50 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the pie cool completely before serving. Garnish with whipped cream if desired.

Notes
