Ingredients:

  • 6 eggs
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon mace
  • 1 1/2 cups milk

Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients—eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree, ground ginger, cinnamon, allspice, mace, and milk.

  2. Mix Well: Use a whisk or electric mixer to thoroughly blend the ingredients until smooth and well combined. Ensure there are no lumps in the mixture.

  3. Prepare Pie Shells: If using ready-made pie crusts, place them in pie dishes. Alternatively, you can prepare your own pastry crusts if preferred.

  4. Fill Pie Shells: Ladle the prepared pumpkin pie filling evenly into the pie shells, ensuring they are filled to the top.

  5. Bake: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the filled pie shells in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. This initial high temperature helps to set the crust.

  6. Reduce Heat: After 10 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Continue baking the pies for an additional 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the pies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Optionally, serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!

Recipe Yield: Makes approximately 3 regular-sized pies.

Whether enjoyed as a sweet ending to a holiday feast or as a comforting dessert on a chilly winter evening, my mom’s pumpkin pie filling is guaranteed to delight your taste buds and warm your heart with every delicious bite!
