Ingredients

• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 3 tablespoons ice water
• 1.75 cups pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0 whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Start by making the pie crust. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Add the ice water gradually, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until a dough begins to form.

Step 4

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, shape into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish, trim any excess, and crimp the edges.

Step 7

In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until smooth and well combined.

Step 8

Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature before slicing.

Step 11

Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
