Ingredients

Pumpkin Pie

  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated maple sugar
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pureed pumpkin
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • Homemade or store-bought pie crust

Instructions

Pumpkin Pie

  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs slightly. Use an electric hand mixer or a whisk to mix together the remaining ingredients together, until smooth. Set aside.
  • Using either homemade or store-bought pie dough, place one round in the bottom of a 9 ½-inch glass pie plate OR 9-inch cast-iron skillet. Roll under the crust and pinch your crust, using your fingers.
  • Carefully brush the edge of the pie crust with an egg wash.
  • Pour the pie filling into the unbaked pie shell. If desired, add decorative pie dough leaves on the top of the pie filing.
  • Bake in a preheated 425 degree F oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven to 350 degrees F and continue to bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick when inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely. Refrigerate until serving. Serve with homemade whipped cream.

Notes

NOTE:
If using a cast iron skillet be sure to spray the bottom of the pan with cooking spray prior to placing the pie crust in it!
(Egg wash is just one large egg, 1 teaspoon of water, and a pinch of salt whisked together)
