Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz refrigerated 9-inch pie crust unbaked
  • 1.75 cup pumpkin puree unsweetened
  • 11.5 fl oz evaporated milk
  • 3.8 oz eggs, lightly beaten about 2 large
  • 0.67 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.28 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1.5 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped cream for serving, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Set a rimmed baking sheet on the center rack to heat.
  • Stir granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Whisk in pumpkin puree until smooth and glossy.
  • Beat in the eggs, then whisk in evaporated milk and vanilla until creamy.
  • Fit the crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp. Place the pie plate on the hot baking sheet.
  • Pour the filling into the crust. Bake 15 minutes at 425°F.
  • Reduce oven to 350°F and bake 30–35 minutes more, until the center is mostly set with a slight jiggle.
  • Cool on a rack for 2 hours. Chill 1 hour before slicing. Serve with whipped cream.

Notes

For a maple twist, swap 2 tbsp of the granulated sugar with maple syrup and reduce evaporated milk by the same amount. Add a pinch of fresh-grated nutmeg for extra warmth. Store leftovers covered in the fridge up to 3 days; serve chilled or at room temperature.
