How to Make Aunt Roxie's Perfect Pumpkin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth.
  3. Gently stir in the whipped cream until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Pour the filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  6. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The center may still jiggle slightly.
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  9. For an extra special touch, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
