Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

For the Pie Crust:

  • 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup cold butter
  • 1/4 cup ice water

For the Pumpkin Pie Filling:

  • 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/8 ground cloves

Instructions

For the Pie Crust:

  • Mix together the flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
  • Add in the cubed butter. Using a pastry cutter (or two forks) cut the butter into the mixture until it is well distributed, with a meal like consistency, and some pea sized pieces throughout. 1/2 cup cold butter
  • Add in the ice water, and mix together the dough with a rubber spatula. Once it starts to clump together, work the dough together with your hands. 1/4 cup ice water
  • Flatten the dough into a 1 inch thick disk.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 2 hours (or the freezer for about 30 minutes).
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Gently roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Turn the crust every few rolls, a quarter turn to roll it out evenly, and prevent it from sticking to the counter. Roll it out to approximately 12 inches.
  • Carefully lift the crust up and transfer it into a 9inch pie dish. Tuck the crust evenly under itself, and crimp the edges with your fingers.

For the Pumpkin Pie Filling:

  • Combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. 15 oz can pumpkin puree, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, 1/4 tsp ground ginger, 1/8 ground cloves
  • Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Lower the oven temperature to 350 and continue baking. Bake for another 40-50 minutes, until pie is set and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and let the pie cool completely before slicing into and enjoying, topped with whipped cream.
