Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Servings 8 people

Ingredients

  • 2 cups pumpkin puree homemade or canned
  • 1 (14oz) condensed milk
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp ground clove
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 unbaked pie crust

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C)
  • In a food processor, add the pumpkin puree, condensed milk, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, clove, nutmeg, and salt until smooth. Pour into the unbaked pie crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • Dial the temperature down to 350°F and continue to bake for 35-40 minutes. Watch the edge of the crust. When it is golden brown or until a knife inserted into the centre of the pie comes out clean.
  • Allow the pie to cool completely before serving. About 2 hours.

Notes

 
Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream. I like pumpkin pie to be well chilled, so I make pies a day ahead of time and keep them in the refrigerator overnight with a film on top. However, it's perfectly acceptable to serve room temperature pie too - just be sure to pop the leftovers in the fridge.
