Ingredients
  

For the Pie
  • 1 9-inch pie crust Can use store-bought or homemade.
  • 1 3/4 cups pumpkin purée Use pure pumpkin purée, not pie filling.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
For the Spices
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using store-bought crust, thaw as directed. Press the crust into a 9-inch pie dish and chill.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, both sugars, eggs, cream, and all spices including salt. Mix until smooth.
  3. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for 50–60 minutes. The center should jiggle slightly when done. Shield the crust with foil if it browns too quickly.
  2. Let the pie cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set completely.

Notes

Serve chilled or slightly warm with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon. To store, cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for up to 3 to 4 days. Can freeze for up to 2 months.
