Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Pumpkin Pie Recipe by Lauren Allen from Tastes Better From Scratch.
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour 5 minutes
Serving size: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust (9-inch, deep dish, unbaked)
 - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
 - 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
 - 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
 - 2 large eggs
 - 15-ounce can of canned pumpkin or fresh pumpkin puree
 - 12-ounce can of evaporated milk
 

Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
 - In a large bowl beat the eggs and pumpkin together.
 - In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves. Add to the pumpkin mixture.
 - Gradually stir in the evaporated milk. Carefully pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
 - Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes.
 - Reduce temperature to 350° F and bake for 40 to 50 minutes longer, or until the pie is set.
 - Check for doneness by giving the pie a gentle wiggle. The center may jiggle just a tiny bit but it will continue to set up as it cools.
 - Allow the pumpkin pie to cool completely on a wire rack.
 - Serve with whipped cream and caramel pecan topping, if desired.
