Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (cold, cut into cubes)
- 3 tbsp Ice Water (very cold)
- 15 oz Pumpkin Puree (canned, drained)
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar

Instructions
Make the Crust
In a mixing bowl combine the flour and cold butter cubes. Use a pastry blender or fork to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Time: PT10M
Form and Chill Dough
Add ice water, stirring until the dough just comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Roll Out and Fit Crust
On a lightly floured surface roll the dough to a 12‑inch circle. Gently transfer to the 9‑inch pie dish, trim excess, and crimp the edges. Refrigerate the assembled crust while you prepare the filling.
Time: PT10M
Prepare the Filling
In a clean bowl whisk the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until smooth. Stir in pumpkin puree, then slowly whisk in evaporated milk until the mixture is uniform.
Time: PT10M
Bake the Pie
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Pour the filling into the chilled crust. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F and continue baking for 30‑35 minutes. The pie is done when the center still has a slight wobble— it will firm up as it cools.
Time: PT45M
Temperature: 425°F then 350°F
