Ingredients
Scale
1 (15 ounce) can pure pumpkin puree
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust (store-bought is fine)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture is completely smooth.
Pour the filling mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 15 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Do not remove the pie from the oven.
Continue to bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Notes
Using a store-bought pie crust makes this recipe extremely fast and easy.
For a richer flavor, you can substitute the pumpkin pie spice with 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves.
This pie sets best when fully chilled, so plan to make it several hours ahead of serving.
