Even though my favorite holiday pies involve Pumpkin and Bourbon (no brainer) or Sweet Potato and Pecans (two pies in one!) you can’t beat the ease of the classic holiday pumpkin pie. And the Libby’s pumpkin pie recipe on the back of the can is as classic as you can get.
Here it is, with step-by-step photos…and even a video. Enjoy making this for your holiday dinners, even at the last minute, and be sure to please everyone’s sweet tooth at the table.
Classic Pumpkin Pie
Recipe by Libby’s
Ingredients for 10 servings:
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 large eggs
1 can (15 ounces) Pumpkin purée
1 can (12 fluid ounces) Evaporated Milk, (Or substitute with equal amount Lactose-Free or Almond Cooking Milk)
1 unbaked 9-inch (4-cup volume) deep-dish pie shell or Homemade Pie Crust (it’s easier than you think, and it’s so much better than a store-bought crust)
Directions:
Make pie crust, or thaw premade crust. IF HOMEMADE: make your pie crust look pro by using your finger to press the sides all the way around. It’ quick, simple, and elevates the look of the end result.
Preheat oven to 425° F and gather ingredients.
Mix sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger and cloves in small bowl.
Beat eggs in large bowl.
Stir in pumpkin and sugar-spice mixture.
Gradually stir in evaporated milk.
Pour into pie shell.
Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350° F, and bake for 40 minutes or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack for 2 hours. Serve immediately or refrigerate.
