Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch shell pre-made or homemade pie crust
- 15 oz pumpkin puree
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 0.5 tsp ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup (optional, for topping) heavy cream or whipped cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface if needed and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim excess dough and crimp the edges for a decorative finish. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.
Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake 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 the filling is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to set completely.
Serve slices topped with heavy cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat. Refrigerate any leftovers and consume within 3-4 days.
