Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients (except pie crust) and mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Pour the mix into the pie shell and bake for 10 minutes at 450 degrees. Then lower heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for approximately 50 more minutes.
  • Remove pie from heat, and allow it to cool for 5 mnutes prior to serving.

Notes

Adjust the amount of cayenne to your liking. This recipe as it stands (1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder) provides considerable spiciness to the pumpkin pie. 
If you're baking for a family/holiday meal where there's a wide variety of heat tolerances at the table, we recommend lowering the amount to 1/4 teaspoon. The same if you tend to like milder "warming" spiciness.
