Classic Pumpkin Pie

That timeless pumpkin pie recipe from the back of the pumpkin purée can? It’s a classic for a reason. We made this simple, from-scratch version to celebrate that same cozy flavor. Make the crust from scratch following our perfect pie crust recipehere, but if you’re short on time, a pre-made crust is a perfectly acceptable shortcut.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (15 oz) Field Day 100% Pure Pumpkin
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 3/4 cup Field Day granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon Field Day ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Preparing the oven first ensures even baking.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Beat in eggs, then gradually stir in the evaporated milk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Place your unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. Gently press the dough into the edges and crimp if desired.
  4. Pour the pumpkin filling into the crust. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350°F (175°C) and bake 40–50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  5. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
