🙂 My aunt Priscilla gifted me with several quick, delicious recipes. This pumpkin pie recipe is so easy and so good. I loved it from day one, but it got even better when I started preparing my own pumpkin instead of canned. And, I’m generous when I measure the spices.

Top it with whipped cream. So, so good.

Ingredients

  • 1 uncooked pie crust

  • 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk (Eagle Brand)

  • 2 cups of pumpkin (canned or in my case my own baked pumpkin)

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

  • 1/2 tsp ginger

  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375F
  • Partially bake crust (10 minutes)
  • Blend all other ingredients in a large bowl. Turn into crust
  • Bake at 375F for 50-55 minutes until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool.
    Note: I'm generous in measuring the spices. I also cook my own pumpkin.

Notes

  • Note: I'm generous in measuring the spices. I also cook my own pumpkin. And I didn't count the cook time for the pie crust. It's not strictly necessary, but I think it works best to do it.
