Method
- Prepare the Pie Crust: Place your pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan. If using a store-bought crust, you don’t need to pre-bake it. Simply press it into the pan and set it aside.
- Mix the Pumpkin Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Libby’s Pure Pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk these ingredients until well blended.
- Add Eggs and Cream: Crack the two eggs into the bowl, followed by the heavy cream. Use your whisk to mix everything together until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Pour the Filling into the Crust: Carefully pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust. Make sure it is evenly spread out.
- Bake the Pie: Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool on a wire rack for about 2 hours before slicing. This allows the filling to set and ensures you get clean slices.
Notes
I made this Libby’s Pumpkin Pie for a family gathering, and it was an instant hit. The spices are perfectly balanced, and the creamy filling has just the right amount of sweetness. For extra flavor, you can add a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon on top before serving.
