Instructions

FOR THE PIE CRUST:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°.
  • Roll your pie crust out to 12-inches in diameter and roughly 1/4-inch thickness. Place it over your 9-inch pie plate and gently press to fit. Trim the dough so you have a 1-inch overhang, fold the overhang underneath and then pinch the dough to form and edge.
  • Next move your oven rack to the lowest position of your oven. Then preheat your oven to 375°. Meanwhile place the dough in your fridge for 20 minutes before placing a piece of parchment in the center and filling it with pie weights or dried beans.
  • Partially bake the crust for 15 minutes and then remove and cool.

FOR THE FILLING/PIE:

  • Preheat oven to 425°.
  • Whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, pie spice, salt, vanilla, milk and cream in a bowl until smooth.
  • Pour the filling into the partially baked pie shell. Place the filled pie into a preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • Then reduce the heat to 350° and continue baking for 35-40 minutes. The pie should have a slight wiggle but will firm up as it cools. Or use a knife and insert in the middle, it should come out clean.
  • Let cool before serving.
