How to Make Pumpkin Chess Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, eggs, evaporated milk, spices, and salt until smooth.
  3. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  4. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The center might still jiggle slightly.
  5. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  6. Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy!
