Ingredients:

For the Pie Crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2-3 tablespoons ice water

For the Pumpkin Filling:

  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk

Optional:

  • Whipped cream for serving

Instructions:

For the Pie Crust:

  1. Prepare the Crust:
    • In a food processor, combine the flour, chilled butter, and salt. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Add Water:
    • Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough starts to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
  3. Form a Disk:
    • Turn the dough onto a floured surface, gather it into a ball, and flatten into a disk. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  4. Roll Out the Crust:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the rolled-out crust to the pie dish, pressing it gently into the bottom and edges.
  5. Flute Edges:
    • Trim any excess crust and flute the edges for a decorative finish.

For the Pumpkin Filling:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Mix Pumpkin Filling:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
  3. Add Eggs and Milk:
    • Beat in the eggs, then gradually stir in the evaporated milk until well combined.
  4. Fill the Crust:
    • Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool:
    • Allow the pumpkin pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving or refrigerating.
  7. Serve:
    • Serve chilled or at room temperature, optionally topped with whipped cream.
