Description
The ultimate cozy dessert for fall, this classic pumpkin pie recipe features simple ingredients, warm spices, and creamy texture perfect for holiday gatherings or everyday indulgence.
Ingredients
1 store-bought refrigerated or frozen pie crust
1 ¾ cups pumpkin puree (one full can)
¾ cup brown sugar, firmly packed
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 ¾ cups whole milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Press the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Place on a baking tray to catch any spills.
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
Add the whole milk and whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the filling into the crust. Optionally, cover crust edges with foil to prevent over-browning.
Bake for 60–70 minutes, checking at 60 minutes. The pie should be mostly set with a slight jiggle in the center.
Cool completely on a wire rack, then chill in the fridge for at least 5 hours before serving.
Slice, top with whipped cream if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
Lightly greasing or flouring the pie dish can help prevent sticking.
Adjust spices or sweetness to taste for a personalized flavor.
