When it comes to pie crusts, I like to make mine with a rustic look. When it comes to pumpkin pie filling, I like mine creamy, rich, and sweet. I will either use canned organic pumpkin OR I will roast and puree my own pumpkin for the filling to my pies.
1/2Teaspooneach: Ground Cloves. Cinnamon and Pumpkin Pie Spice
1Unbaked Pie Crust
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450*
In a large bowl combine: pumpkin, milk, eggs, sugar, flour, salt, and spices. Mix well with a wire whisk and pour into pie shell.
Bake for 20 minutes, then turn oven temperature down to 350* and bake for an additional 40 minutes (or until knife inserted into center comes out clean)
Notes
To prevent a burnt crust, place a crust ring over the exposed crust before baking. If you do not have one, you can use aluminum foil.
