Signature Pumpkin Pie

Here’s what you’ll need to get that pie baking:

Ingredients:

  • 1 ¾ cups pumpkin puree (fresh or canned)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This good heat is gonna help that crust get nice and golden!
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, toss in the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir it all up until it’s nice and smooth.
  4. Pour that luscious filling into your pie crust, and smooth out the top with a spatula.
  5. Pop it in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. After that, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until the center is set.
  6. Once it’s done, let it cool on a wire rack for about 2 hours. Don’t rush it; this makes sure it slices beautifully!
  7. Slice it up, serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and watch those smiles spreading around the table!

Now you got yourself a pie that not only looks good but tastes outta this world! So roll up your sleeves, gather the fam, and let’s make this holiday season one to remember!
