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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 5

Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to set completely.

Step 8

Serve slices topped with heavy cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat. Refrigerate any leftovers and consume within 3-4 days.
