Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with extra-virgin olive oil and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, and honey. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time to the pumpkin mixture, whisking well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, ground cloves, and salt. Mix until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set and slightly firm to touch. The edges will be slightly puffed.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Once completely cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the pie to set completely.
Slice into 8 pieces and serve chilled. For added flavor, optionally garnish with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
