Ingredients
- 3 eggs large
- ½ cup white granulated sugar
- ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar packed
- 15 ounce pure pumpkin puree canned, not pumpkin pie filling
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream thickened cream or evaporated milk
- 3 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 9 inch pie crust or store bought pie shell
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare pie crust. If using uncooked pie crust, prick the base a few times with a fork to prevent air bubbles before pouring in the filling. Set aside.
- Whisk eggs and all of the sugars together until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, cream (or evaporated milk), vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg and salt. Mix to combine well.
- Place prepared pie shell onto a baking sheet. Pour filling into shell and bake pie for 15 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for a further 50-55 minutes, or when a knife tip inserted in the middle comes out relatively clean but still a little wet. The centre of the pie should be a little jiggly like jello.If the edges of the crust start to become too dark, cover with a thin strip of foil.
- Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 2 hours. (The pie will be puffed up as soon as it comes out of the oven, but it will deflate and flatten while it cools.)
- To store: Cover room temperature pie loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Notes
- There are two ways you can make your own pumpkin puree from scratch.
- I don't recommend boiling as there will be too much water absorbed into the pumpkin. You want a puree more on the drier side.
- ROAST: Halve a small 2 pound pumpkin vertically through the stem. Use a mental spoon to scrape out the seeds and strings. Arrange pumpkin, cut side down on a lined baking sheet. Roast, uncovered at 350°F (175°C) until fork-tender (1 hour). Allow to cool. Scrape flesh from skin and puree flesh in a food processor or blender in batches of two or three, depending on the size.
- STEAM: Chop pumpkin into large chunks (about 2-3 inches) and steam until fork-tender. Blend as mentioned above.
