Thanksgiving is definitely one of the best holidays, mainly because of the food. There is everything from turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing to cranberry sauce. However, we know that everyone’s real favorite is the pies such as apple pie, pumpkin pie, and pecan pie. You may think that pie is impossible to make, but you are wrong. Instead of ordering your pie from any store or restaurant such as Frisch’s, here is an easy recipe for a delicious pumpkin pie!

These are the ingredients you will need:

1 can of pumpkin

1 can condensed milk

2 eggs

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ teaspoon ginger

½ teaspoon nutmeg

½ teaspoon salt

1 unbaked pie crust

Step 1) Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Whisk everything except for the pie crust together in a medium bowl until smooth. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake for 15 minutes.

Step 2) Reduce oven temperature to 350  degrees Fahrenheit and bake for another 35-40 minutes. You can make sure it has cooked enough by sticking a toothpick into the pie and seeing if it comes out clean.

Step 3) Sprinkle some cinnamon on top and congratulations! You made a pie!

Step 4) Add a dollop of whipped cream on top for a final touch!

This whole process only takes 1 hour and 10 minutes and 55 of those minutes the pie is in the oven.

Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy your pie!
