Fill Crusts
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the two 9‑inch unbaked pie shells. -
Bake
Place the pies in the oven, then reduce the temperature to 350 °F. Cover the crust edges with foil to prevent burning. -

Tips
Covering the crust edges with foil helps keep the bottom from over‑browning. For a smoother custard, whisk the filling ingredients thoroughly before pouring into the crust.
