How to Make 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, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, and salt until completely smooth and well combined.
  3. Carefully pour the pumpkin mixture into your prepared pie crust.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  5. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Continue baking for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out clean. The center may still jiggle slightly.
  6. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. This allows the filling to set properly.
  7. Garnish with whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or your favorite toppings.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to fully chill. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
