Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Roll out the unbaked pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and flute the edges as desired.
Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours.
Once cooled, refrigerate the pie if you prefer it chilled, or serve at room temperature, topping each slice with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
