How to Make My Favorite Pumpkin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree and 2 large eggs until completely smooth.
  3. Add ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  4. Whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
  5. Gradually whisk in 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk until fully incorporated.
  6. Pour the pumpkin mixture into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, or the center is just slightly jiggly. (Do not overbake!)
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  10. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy!
