1 cup evaporated milk
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
4 egg yolks
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup heavy cream

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, brown sugar, egg yolks, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until smooth. cook over medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring continuously.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect pie crust, use a food processor to combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then, add the ice water and pulse until the dough just comes together.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a floured surface to prevent sticking. Roll the dough out to a 12-inch circle and transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the edges and crimp the crust to seal.
  • To make the pumpkin pie filling, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, eggs, spices, and salt. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the pie is baking, make the gingersnap crumb topping. Combine the gingersnap crumbs, sugar, flour, and butter in a small bowl. Sprinkle the topping over the baked pie and return to the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown.
