Recipe Summary

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes

Servings: 8

Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

  • 1 unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Whipped cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place your pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, heavy cream, and eggs. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  3. Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
  4. Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least an hour before serving. This allows the filling to fully set.
  7. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and an extra drizzle of maple syrup if desired. Enjoy!

Helpful Tips

If you’re new to pie making, here are some helpful variations to make the process smoother:

  • You can use store-bought pumpkin pie spice instead of individual spices to save time.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute the heavy cream with coconut milk.
  • To prevent the crust from over-browning, cover the edges with aluminum foil during baking.

Storage Instructions

Store the pie in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Cover it with plastic wrap or foil to keep it fresh.
