Description

This classic pumpkin pie is rich, smooth, and full of cozy fall spices. Made with pure pumpkin puree, warm cinnamon, nutmeg, and a flaky homemade or store-bought crust, it’s the perfect dessert for Thanksgiving or any chilly day when you’re craving something sweet and comforting.


Ingredients

  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust

  • 1 (15 oz) can pure pumpkin puree

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 cup evaporated milk

  • 1/2 cup whole milk

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  • Roll out the pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. Crimp the edges as desired.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

  • Add the eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth.

  • Stir in the evaporated milk, whole milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

  • Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.

  • Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for another 40–50 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

  • Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack.

 

  • Serve with whipped cream if desired.


Notes

  • Pie can be made a day ahead and stored in the fridge.

  • For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of black pepper or cardamom.

  • If the crust is browning too quickly, cover the edges with foil during baking.
