1 8oz. pkg cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg
1 9 in. pie crust..unbaked
TOP LAYER
1 1/4 c canned pumpkin
1/2 c sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 c evaporated milk
2 slightly beaten eggs

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350...Combine softened cream cheese, sugar & vanilla, mixing until well blended. add egg; mix well. Spread onto bottom of pie crust.
  • 2. Combine remaining ingredients; mix well. Carefully pour over cream cheese mixture.
  • 3. Bake @ 350, one hour or until done.

Tips:

  • Use a ripe pumpkin. A ripe pumpkin will have a deep orange color and be heavy for its size. Avoid pumpkins with bruises or blemishes.
  • Roast the pumpkin before using it. Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the pumpkin, cut it in half, remove the seeds, and place it cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the pumpkin is tender.
  • Use a good quality pie crust. A good quality pie crust will make all the difference in the final product. You can either make your own pie crust or use a store-bought one. If you are using a store-bought pie crust, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing the filling will make it tough. Stir the filling just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to set the crust and prevent it from becoming soggy. After 15 minutes, reduce the temperature and continue baking until the pie is set.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin pie is a classic fall dessert that is loved by people of all ages. With its creamy, spiced filling and flaky crust, it's the perfect way to end a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal. By following these tips, you can make the best pumpkin pie that you've ever tasted.
