Preparation

Step 1

Mix the flour, spices and salt. Add the sugar and pumpkin, blending thoroughly. Stir in the syrup and milk. For best texture, allow the mixture to rest for 30-60 minutes. Add the beaten eggs, whisking till combined.
Pour the filling into the crust. Cover the edge of the crust with a crust shield, or aluminum foil.
Bake the pie on the bottom rack of a preheated 450° oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350° F, move the pie to the middle rack and bake for an additional 35 minutes, or until the temperature at the center is at least 170°F and a knife inserted 1” from the edge comes out moist, but clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and cool to room temperature before serving.
