Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 425 grams Pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 397 grams Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, and eggs. Mix until smooth.
Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Roll out the pre-made pie crust if it isn't already shaped. Place it into a 9-inch pie dish and press it gently into the corners.
Pour the pumpkin filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the pie in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours. This allows the filling to fully set.
Slice and serve as is, or top with whipped cream for an extra festive touch.
