Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 15 ounces (425 grams) pumpkin puree
- 3 large eggs
- 14 ounces (396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
- 9-inch premade pie crust
Spices and Seasonings:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by nestling the premade pie crust into its contours, ensuring a smooth and even placement.
- Whisk together pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and salt in a spacious mixing bowl until the mixture achieves a silky, uniform consistency.
- Gently transfer the lustrous filling into the pie crust, using a spatula to spread it evenly and eliminate any air pockets.
- Position the pie in a preheated oven set to 425°F (220°C) and roast for 15 minutes, creating a golden initial crust.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 35-40 minutes, monitoring until a knife inserted near the center emerges cleanly without any wet filling.
- Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to rest on a wire cooling rack, letting the filling set and stabilize for approximately 2 hours before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Swap sweetened condensed milk with coconut milk for a dairy-free version that maintains creamy texture.
- Use gluten-free pie crust to make the recipe suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
- Prevent pie crust edges from burning by covering them with aluminum foil during the last 20 minutes of baking.
- Enhance flavor by adding a sprinkle of fresh ground nutmeg or cinnamon on top before serving for extra warmth and aroma.
