Perfect Pumpkin Pie
A traditional Thanksgiving pie, but also popular all year long.
Ingredients
Filling:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp cloves
- 1/2 tsp allspice
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cup canned pure pumpkin 398ml can
- 1 large can 370ml evaporated milk (or canned coconut milk*)
Instructions
- Mix all filling ingredients in a large microwave safe bowl. Cook on HIGH for 6 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes. This helps to precook the filling, so it doesn't need to be in the oven as long, and preventing the crust from overcooking.
- Pour into unbaked pie crust, and bake at 400°F for 15 minutes, reduce to 350°F and continue baking for 40 minutes or until knife comes out clean.
Notes
*if using coconut milk, use a mixture of regular and low fat, to try and get a similar thickness as evaporated milk would be.
