PIE FILLING
1 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
3 eggs
10 oz. heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons salted butter, melted then cooled slightly
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons all purpose gluten free flour (you can also use regular flour here too!)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
**Note: You can use 2 teaspoons of a pumpkin pie spice, but I prefer to measure out all of the spices separately because it creates a better blend, in my opinion.

Instructions |
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Prepare the pie crust and parbake it. (Recipe here!)
Using a large mixing bowl, add the can of pumpkin puree, milk/cream, melted butter & eggs. Mix it well to make sure the eggs are combined.
Add in the flour, white sugar, brown sugar, salt and pumpkin pie spices. Whisk it all together well. The mixture will be creamy and thin.
Once the pie crust is done parbaking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Pour in the filling into the crust and sprinkle a little touch of cinnamon and all spice over the filling.
Very carefully place the pie back into the oven for 15 minutes then reduce the heat to 350 degrees.
Continue cooking for another 35-40 minutes, checking on it occasionally. When the pie doesn’t jiggle too much and you notice a small crack in the filling, it is done baking. It should jiggle slightly but in a controlled way, not a loose liquid way.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for about 45 minutes.
Then place it in the refrigerator for 1.5 hours to firm.
Serve with some whipped cream & enjoy!
