How to Make the Recipe

Making this Classic Pumpkin Pie is as easy as pie (pun intended)! Here’s how to do it:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin pie mix, evaporated milk, and eggs. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
3. Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie shell, spreading it evenly.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your Libby Pumpkin Pie turns out perfectly every time:

• Make sure your eggs are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
• Don’t skip the cooling step! Letting the pie cool allows it to set properly.
• If you want to add a twist, consider mixing in a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
• For a beautiful presentation, top with a dollop of Cool Whip just before serving.
• Use a ready-made pie crust for a quick and easy option—perfect for busy weeknight dinner ideas!

How to Serve

This Libby Pumpkin Pie is best served chilled or at room temperature. I love to add a generous dollop of Cool Whip on top, but you can also serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. Pair it with a warm cup of coffee or a spiced chai tea for a cozy fall experience. It’s the perfect dessert to share with family and friends during your next gathering!

Make Ahead and Storage

One of the best things about this Classic Pumpkin Pie is that it can be made ahead of time. In fact, it tastes even better the next day! Just cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you want to make it even earlier, you can freeze the pie before baking. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and it will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it, simply thaw it in the fridge overnight and bake as directed.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab those five ingredients and get ready to impress your family with this Libby Pumpkin Pie Recipe. It’s a simple pumpkin pie that’s sure to become a favorite in your home. Happy baking!
