How to Make Sherry's Fresh Easy Pumpkin Pie

  1. Pierce the pumpkin all over with a fork.
  2. Microwave the whole pumpkin on high for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway. Continue microwaving in 5-minute intervals, until easily pierced with a fork (total time may vary depending on your microwave and pumpkin size).
  3. Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the pumpkin flesh, discarding the seeds and skin.
  4. Measure out 2 cups of cooked pumpkin puree.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves), and Greek yogurt.
  6. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought).
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
