Delicious Pumpkin Pie Recipe - Authentic American Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
  • 3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 can evaporated milk (12 oz)
  • 1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

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

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix the Filling

    In a large bowl, combine pumpkin puree, sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.

    Use a whisk for a smooth mixture.
  3. Add Eggs and Milk

    Beat in the eggs and then stir in the evaporated milk until well combined.

    Mix until the filling is smooth.
  4. Prepare the Pie Crust

    Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired.

    Make sure it's not too thick on the edges.
  5. Fill the Crust

    Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust.

    Leave some space at the top as it may puff up.
  6. Bake the Pie

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35-40 minutes.

    Check for doneness with a knife; it should come out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve

    Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

    Serve with whipped cream for added flavor.
