Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, apple butter, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth.
Add heavy cream and whole milk to the pumpkin mixture and stir until well combined.
Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl, then add them to the pumpkin mixture, stirring to incorporate.
Add ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the filling is smooth.
Place the prepared gluten-free pie crust on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
Pour the filling into the pie crust and gently spread with a spatula to even the top.
Carefully transfer the baking sheet with the pie to the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 375Β°F (190Β°C).
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and continue to bake for another 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set but slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help the pie to set completely.
For best flavor, the pie can be refrigerated for a few hours or overnight and served chilled or at room temperature.
