Ingredients:
- 15 oz canned pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Gently press the dough into the pie plate, ensuring the edges are flush against the rim. Trim the excess and crimp the edges.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and brown sugar until smooth. Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
- Fold in the pumpkin puree until fully incorporated.
- Gradually pour in the evaporated milk, whisking gently to avoid incorporating too much air.
- Pour the filling into the crust.
- Bake at 425°F (218°C) for the first 15 minutes to set the crust.
- Reduce the heat to 350°F (177°C) and bake for another 35–40 minutes until the edges are mahogany-colored and the center has a slight, uniform jiggle.
