Classic Pumpkin Pie
Ingredients
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pastry shell
- 2 cups pumpkin purée (canned pure pumpkin, or drained fresh)
- 3 eggs
- 1 can (370 mL) evaporated milk (or 1½ cups cream)
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1½ tsp cinnamon, ½ tsp each ginger and nutmeg, ¼ tsp clove
- ½ tsp salt, 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Whisk the pumpkin, eggs, evaporated milk, brown sugar, spices, salt, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour into the pastry shell (blind-bake it first for a crisper base, if you like).
- Bake at 220 °C for 15 minutes to set the crust.
- Lower to 180 °C and bake 35–40 minutes more, until set with a slight jiggle in the centre.
- Cool completely (the custard finishes setting as it cools). Chill, and serve with whipped cream.
