Mom’s Pumpkin Pie

By Carrie Floyd, from the Culinate Kitchen collection

Serves	8 to 10
Prep Time	15 minutes
Cook Time	45 minutes
Total Time	1 hour

Introduction

Mom’s pumpkin pie, it turns out, came from a Libby's pumpkin label. I used to balk at how easy it was — open a couple of cans, stir in some eggs and spices. Now I marvel at its genius. It’s worth making more often than just the holidays.

Ingredients

	2	large eggs
	¾	cup sugar
	1	tsp. cinnamon
	½	tsp. ground ginger
	¼	tsp. ground cloves
	½	tsp. salt
	1	(15-ounce) can pumpkin or 1¾ cups Pumpkin Purée
	1	(12-ounce) can evaporated milk
	1	(9-inch) unbaked, chilled pie shell
	~	Whipped cream for garnish (optional)

Steps

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In a large bowl, beat eggs. Whisk in sugar, spices, salt, and pumpkin; stir until smooth. Gradually add the evaporated milk, stirring all the while, until smooth.
Reduce oven to 350 degrees. Pour pumpkin filling into pie shell. Bake pie for 40 to 50 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours, then serve or refrigerate.
