Scratched Pumpkin Pie

Servings: 1 (9-inch) pie
Author: Shawn

Ingredients

  • 1 9- inch pie crust
  • 2- cups 16 ounces pumpkin (if you didn't bake your own, you could use a can)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger optional
  • 3 eggs
  • 2/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup milk if using canned pumpkin

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together the pumpkin, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and, if using, ginger.
  • Add eggs and mix until well blended.
  • Pour in the evaporated milk, and stir until blended.
  • Pour the pumpkin batter into a prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  • Place in the oven (on a rimmed baking sheet if it looks like it might go over the edge), and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and cool. Place in refrigerator and let the flavors meld for a day.
