Ingredients

Filling:

  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 1 12 oz can evaporated milk
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp allspice
  • 3 eggs

Instructions

Filling

  • Using a fork or whisk, mix all ingredients in a large bowl until combined

Assembly

  • Preheat the oven to 425 °F
  • Roll out one disk of pie dough into a 9 in pie pan
  • Place the pie on a backing sheet so it’s easy to move around. Place a large sheet of aluminum foil in the over the pie crust and fill with pie weights or dried beans. You’ll want to make sure the piece of foil is larger than the pie pan so you can easily lift the edges when it’s time to remove the weights.
  • Bake for 12 minutes. Now is a good time to make the filling by mixing all the filling ingredients in a bowl.
  • Remove the pie crust from oven and carefully remove the foil with the beans. The easiest way is to pull the sides of foil towards the middle and lift up.
  • Place the pie crust back in oven and bake for another 5 minutes.
  • Remove from oven. While still hot, pour the pumpkin pie filling into the pie pan.
  • Place back in the oven and bake at 425 for 15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, lower the temp to 350 and bake for another 25 - 30 minutes.
  • The pie should still be very wobbly in the middle when you remove it. It will firm up while it cools.
  • Let sit until completely cool.
  • Optional: While it cools you can bake any decorative pie crust cut outs with the extra pie dough. Depending on the size you can bake for 12-15 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • Once completely cool, decorate with the cut outs by placing them directly on the pie.
