EAGLE BRAND'S PERFECT PUMPKIN PIE

I know pumpkin pie is mostly thought of as a Fall dessert. However, pumpkin is very healthy and we should eat it year round. So if you are thinking pie, why not made it pumpkin?

2 cups canned or cooked pumpkin
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
2 eggs
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie shell (deep dish shell works best)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

In a medium mixing bowl with a wire whisk, beat together pumpkin, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Pour pumpkin mixture into the prepared crust. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue baking 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted 1-inch from the crust comes out clean. Cool before cutting. Serve topped with whipped cream.
