For the Pumpkin Filling:
- 15 ounces Libby’s canned pumpkin 1 can
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract to enhance sweetness
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg for added warmth
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
For the Pie Crust:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup ice water
Step 1: Prepare the Pie Crust
First things first, let’s handle the crust. Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture is crumbly. Slowly add ice water until the dough comes together. Split the dough in half, form into discs, wrap them in plastic, and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Step 2: Roll Out the Pie Crust
Roll one of the dough discs on a lightly floured surface until it’s about 12 inches in diameter. Drape the crust over a 9-inch pie plate, trim the edges, and pop it back in the fridge until it’s time to fill.
Step 3: Mix the Filling
In a large bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, sea salt, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, freshly grated nutmeg, ground ginger, and cloves. Whisk until smooth and well mixed.
- Chill Your Dough: Always chill your dough. Warm dough equals a sad, droopy crust.
- Avoid Over-Mixing: Mix just until the ingredients come together. Overworking the dough leads to a tough crust.
- Pie Shield: Use a pie shield or aluminum foil to cover the crust edges if they start browning too quickly.
- Fresh Spices: Freshly grated nutmeg makes a world of difference. If you can, use fresh spices.
- Bake Until Set: The center should jiggle just slightly—think Jell-O, not liquid.
