Ingredients

• For the crust:
• - 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• - ¼ cup granulated sugar
• For the filling:
• - 2 cups canned pumpkin puree
• - 1 cup granulated sugar
• - ½ teaspoon salt
• - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• - ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• - ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• - 3 large eggs
• - 1 ⅓ cups evaporated milk
• For the whipped cream:
• - 1 cup heavy cream
• - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar for the crust. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, eggs, and evaporated milk until well combined. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
4. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
5. While the pie is cooling, prepare the whipped cream. In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
6. Once the pie is completely cooled, spread the whipped cream over the top. You can pipe it using a piping bag for a decorative touch.
7. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
8. Serve chilled and enjoy this slice of paradise!
