Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and position the oven rack in the lower third.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, and all-purpose flour. Mix until smooth.
Add the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, and salt to the bowl. Stir well to incorporate the spices evenly.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the milk, heavy cream, and pure vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the pumpkin mixture, stirring well until fully blended and creamy.
Roll out the unbaked pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges as desired.
Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the pie at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving.
Slice and serve as is, or top with whipped cream for an extra treat. Enjoy!
