Pumpkin Pie

Hi Everyone, what dessert goes with every Fall holiday and is totally appropriate for the dinner table Labor Day through Christmas? Pumpkin Pie of course! This time of year, I am just craving Pumpkin Pie and all the fragrant spices in it.

This recipe is based on Libby’s Famous Pumpkin Pie recipe which is a food memory of my ideal and favorite pumpkin pie recipes.

Pumpkin Pie is one of those desserts that I can easily eat for breakfast. It’s one of those desserts that can masquerade as health food, even though I am aware it’s not, it still tastes so good with all the pumpkin and spice goodness.

Ingredients for Pumpkin Pie

• 2 large eggs
• 1 15 ounce can Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin Puree
• 1 12 fl. ounce can evaporated milk

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

3. In a large bowl, beat eggs, Add the whole can of pumpkin puree and pour in the evaporated milk and mix with the eggs. 
4. Add the sugar-spice mixture to the wet mixture. 
5. Pour into defrosted pie shell.
6. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven. After 15 minutes, reduce heat to 350 degrees F and bake for 40-50 additional minutes. To check for doneness, a knife should come out clean when inserted into the center.
7. When the pie is done, cool on a trivet or wire rack for 2 hours to allow the pie to firm up. Serve warm or refrigerate. Goes great with whipped cream, enjoy!

Notes

• This recipe is great baked 1 day ahead of serving, it always tastes best on the 2nd day, making the perfect easy Thanksgiving or Christmas dessert.
