This is my beloved grandmother's recipe for pumpkin pie. It is slightly different from most versions in that it calls for molasses, which gives it a richer flavor.
GRANDMA'S PUMPKIN PIE
1 unbaked pie shell
1 (#303) can pumpkin (1 lb.)
1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs, beaten
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons molasses
whipped cream (to serve)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Mix all ingredients for the filling together and place in pie shell.
Bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and bake another 45 minutes. Cool.
Top with whipped cream and enjoy!
