A pumpkin pie is a uniquely fall dessert. Most of us only think of pumpkin pie during those few months of the year reserved for all things fall.
Nowadays you can make pumpkin pie any time of year now that canned pumpkin is readily available all year long.
Easy Pumpkin Pie for Fall
The spices used in the pumpkin pie filling create a flavor that is for me, uniquely fall. Just gather some cinnamon, ginger, ground cloves, and allspice from your pantry. You can make your own pumpkin pie spice by following this recipe.
Whether you want a fall pie for dessert this weekend or you are making pie for Thanksgiving, pumpkin pie is one of the easiest pies you can make. You'll love the no-fuss nature of pumpkin pie. Just mix the filling ingredients together in one bowl.
You probably have the ingredients you need in your pantry now. You'll need a can of pumpkin, evaporated milk, granulated sugar, two large eggs, and pumpkin pie spice. You don't have to go out and buy your pumpkin pie spice. Here's my recipe to make your own or you can watch the video below.
The pumpkin pie filling is baked in an unbaked pie crust. If you have time to make your own pie crust try my recipe for easy food processor pie dough. If you don't have time to make your own crust go ahead and use a prepared pie dough for the grocery store. I bet no one will know.

Whipped Cream Topping
Whipped cream is essential for your pumpkin pie.
Make your homemade sweetened whipped cream by beating together one cup of heavy cream, two tablespoons of sugar, and one teaspoon of vanilla. Mix 1/2- 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice in with the sugar for some extra fall flavor.
