How to Make Orange Spice Pumpkin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roll out 1 (9-inch) pie crust and carefully place it into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together: 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together: 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 2 large eggs, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually whisk the spice mixture (from step 3) into the pumpkin mixture.
  6. Slowly whisk in 3/4 cup heavy cream until just combined.
  7. Add the zest of 1 orange and 1 tablespoon orange juice (optional) and whisk to combine.
  8. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  9. Bake for 10 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  11. Continue baking for 40-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean and the edges are set. The center may still be slightly jiggly.
  12. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2-3 hours before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  13. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving for optimal flavor and texture.
