Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until smooth and well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the two large eggs, then add them to the pumpkin mixture. Mix thoroughly.
Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt to the bowl. Stir until all the spices and sugars are evenly distributed and the filling is smooth.
Finally, mix in the vanilla extract.
Pour the prepared filling into your pre-made or homemade pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the filling is set around the edges but slightly jiggly in the center. A knife inserted about 1 inch from the crust should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature. This helps the filling solidify completely.
Serve at room temperature or chilled with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
