Ingredients
Here's what you'll need to make the best healthy pumpkin pie recipe. It's full of wholesome ingredients that are pantry staples.

- Pumpkin Puree

See the recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Roll out the pie dough, if necessary, and place it in the pie pan, crimping the edges.
Combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
If you are using homemade pumpkin puree - I recommend blending the mixture in a food processor for 1 minute to make sure it's fully smooth.

Mix till smooth and no lumps remain.

Pour the pumpkin pie filling into the pie crust.
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the center no longer wobbles.

About halfway through baking, you can cover the edges of your crust with aluminum foil if they are getting too brown.
Allow to cool fully before cutting and serving.

- Milk - You can substitute the skim milk for oat milk or almond milk. If you like coconut milk, you can use that but it will change the flavor to be more coconutty.
