Dark Pumpkin Pie

Be the first to rate this recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon clove
  • 1 cup scalded milk
  • 1 unbaked pie shell (lower crust only)

Instructions

  1. Break eggs into a small bowl and mix, so that the yolks and whites are well combined.
  2. Mix together the pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon and cloves in a separate, larger bowl.
  3. Scald milk (that is, heat until very hot, but not boiling), and stir the hot milk, and then the eggs, into the pumpkin mixture.
  4. Pour into a pie pan lined with the unbaked pie shell.
  5. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes at 350°F, until a table knife inserted at a point between the center and the edge of the pie, comes out clean.
  6. Please begin checking slightly before the 40 minute point.
  7. Note: Although this recipe calls for 2 cups pumpkin, we have always made it with a 16 oz can of pumpkin puree, which actually is a little more; the cans I have seen lately contain 15 oz, and I don't know how this will affect the pie.
