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 Fahrenheit. Place your unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.
In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix these ingredients until they are smooth and fully combined.
Pour the pumpkin filling mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Continue baking 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. This allows the creamy filling to set properly.
Serve plain or top with whipped cream for a classic finish.
Notes
You can use a refrigerated or frozen pie crust to save preparation time.
If you prefer a stronger spice flavor, add an extra quarter teaspoon of cinnamon.
This recipe is a fast Thanksgiving pie option when you need minimal fuss.
