Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Rubber spatula
- Wire whisk
- Pie dish
- Pie Server
Ingredients
- 1 traditional pie crust ((optional: use remaining dough to create leaf décor))
- 2 cups pure pumpkin puree
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 3/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves (ground)
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- Egg wash: 1 large egg beaten with 1-1/2 tbsp whole milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F depending on the heat of your oven.
- Whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, and brown sugar. Add in the cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, black pepper, heavy cream, and milk and stir vigorously until thoroughly combined.
- Roll our your pie dough and place into a 9 inch pie dish. Place your pie weights in the dough and allow to par-bake for about 10 minutes.
- Pour the pumpkin pie filling into the pre-baked crust. Bake for about 55-65 minutes or until the center is almost set, it should still be slightly wobbly.
- Within 25 minutes of baking, check on the crust—if the edges appear to be getting too brown cover them with aluminum foil or pie shield. Once done baking, transfer the pie to a wire rack and allow to cool completely before serving.
- Decorate with optional whipped cream and/or leaf décor.
