How to Make Grandma's Pumpkin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until completely smooth.
  3. Pour mixture into two 9-inch unbaked pie crusts.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  5. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 30-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, loosely cover the edges with aluminum foil.
  6. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
