Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
- 1 can (15 oz) pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and all the spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and cloves).
- Whisk the mixture until it’s smooth and well combined.
- Pour into the Pie Crust:
- Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 30-35 minutes, or until the pie is set in the center. A knife inserted should come out clean.
- Cool:

Notes
Notes for Pumpkin Pie with Condensed Milk
- Pumpkin Puree: Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added spices and sugar.
- Crust Options: You can use a store-bought or homemade pie crust. For a gluten-free option, consider using a gluten-free pie crust mix.
- Spice Variations: Feel free to adjust the spices according to your taste. Some people prefer more cinnamon or add a pinch of allspice for extra flavor.
- Storage: Leftover pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Cover it loosely with plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep it fresh.
- Serving Suggestions: This pie is delicious served plain, but you can also top it with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra treat.
- Freezing: You can freeze the pie before baking. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil, then bake from frozen, adding extra time to the baking process.
- Testing for Doneness: The pie is done when the filling is set but slightly jiggly in the center. It will firm up as it cools.
- Pre-Baking the Crust: If you prefer a crisper crust, you can pre-bake the crust for about 10 minutes before adding the filling.
