Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling

    Combine the canned pumpkin, sugar and eggs in a bowl; blend until smooth. Stir in salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Finally, add the evaporated milk and mix well.
  2. Assemble the pie

    Roll out one of the pre‑made crusts, fit it into a pie pan and crimp the edges. Pour the pumpkin filling into the crust.
  3. Bake

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue baking for an additional 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Serve

    Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy plain or with whipped cream.
