1/8 tsp each ground cloves, nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon
1/2 can (15 oz) Pumpkin puree
1/2 c evaporated milk
Whisk eggs, pumpkin and milk together. Add sugar, salt and spices and mix well. Pour into pie shell. Preheat oven to 450. Reduce heat to 350 and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes or until knife or toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and pie is solid on top.
