Instructions for Pie-tastic Success
Now that we have our ingredients, let’s roll up those sleeves and get our pie on!
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). It’s going to get cozy in here, folks!
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix it up until it’s all nice and smooth.
- Next, add the evaporated milk and eggs, and whisk them together like you mean it! You’re not just stirring; you’re creating magic.
- Pour the pumpkin mixture into the unbaked pie crust, filling it to the brim. How about a little more love—feel free to sprinkle some extra spices on top!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-50 minutes. You’ll want to keep an eye on it—let’s avoid a burnt offering, shall we?
- When the pie is set (a knife inserted should come out clean), let it cool for at least 2 hours. Patience might not be your virtue, but trust us—it’s worth it!
- Slice it up, serve it with whipped cream (because why not?), and enjoy the deliciousness of Mom’s Pumpkin Pie!
And there you have it! A pie that could make even the grumpiest pumpkin smile. Happy baking, and may your crusts always be flaky!
