How to Make Pumpkin Pie: Classic Pumpkin Pie Recipe
Pumpkin pie is the perfect dessert to serve for Thanksgiving or for any holiday! Making a pumpkin pie from scratch is great, but you can make a delicious pie using ready-make ingredients, as well. This pumpkin pie recipe is quick and easy and comes out great. A dash of maple syrup adds some extra sweetness. It’s always a crowd pleaser!
INGREDIENTS
2 cups canned pumpkin
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 eggs
1 can evaporated milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp allspice
Salt to taste
1 ready made graham cracker or regular pie crust (I prefer the graham cracker)
Cool Whip
METHOD
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix pumpkin with butter.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the rest of the ingredients. Add the pumpkin and stir until well-blended.
4. Pour the mixture into the pie shell and smooth the top with a knife. Heat for about 45 minutes until the a knife stuck into the filling comes out clean.
5. Let cool and serve with Cool Whip. NOTE: Don’t let it cool in the fridge or the crust will end up cracking.
