Ingredients

For the Egg Wash
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons water
For the Pie
  • 1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust (see note)
  • 15 ounces pumpkin puree (1 can)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 12 ounces evaporated milk (1 can)
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. In a small bowl, prepare the egg wash. Beat 1 egg with 2 teaspoons of water. Set aside.
  3. Place the pie dough into an ungreased 9 or 10-inch pie dish. If using an already prepared pie crust in a tin, skip to step 7.
  4. Gently press the pie dough into the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
  5. Trim any excess crust from the edges.
  6. Pinch the edges of the dough around the pie dish. Brush the pie dough edges with the egg wash. Set aside.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, 2 eggs, evaporated milk, and brown sugar.
  8. Add the cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and salt. Stir to combine.
  9. Pour the filling into the pie shell.
  10. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F, cover the crust with tin foil or a pie shield, and bake for another 40-45 minutes.
  11. Let the pie cool for 2 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Store pumpkin pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
  • Pie Dough: For this pumpkin pie recipe, use 1) frozen unbaked pie crust already prepared in a pie tin, 2) unbaked store-bought pie dough, or 3) unbaked homemade pie dough. All 3 of these options work great!
