## Ingredients

- 2 large eggs
- 1 can pure pumpkin
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust

## Instructions

1. Crack a couple of eggs into a bowl.
2. Open one can of pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling, and add it to the bowl with the eggs.
3. Add one can of sweetened condensed milk, which is milk and sugar, to the mixture.
4. Add cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg to the bowl. You don't need to buy a special pumpkin pie spice mix for this.
5. Add a little bit of salt to the mixture.
6. Whisk all the ingredients together until smooth.
7. Grab a store-bought pie crust or make your own if you're an overachiever.
8. Pour the pumpkin filling into the pie crust.
9. Set the pie on a sheet pan just in case of spills.
10. Place the pie into the oven preheated to 425 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes.
11. Reduce the oven heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and continue baking for another half hour or so.
12. Remove the pie from the oven; it should jiggle ever so slightly in the center, which is what you want.
13. Allow the pie to cool completely; it will settle as it cools.
14. After it's cooled, pop it in the fridge for a bit if you prefer your pumpkin pie slightly chilled.
15. Serve your perfect pumpkin pie, perhaps with whipped cream.
