Ingredients

For the Pie:

1 deep dish pie crust see notes
¾ cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
2 eggs
12 ounces evaporated milk
15 ounces pumpkin puree canned

For the Meringue:

6 egg whites
2 teaspoon cream of tartar
⅔ cup sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine all of the ingredients for the pumpkin pie filling and mix well. Pour into the pie crust.
Bake pie for 15 minutes. Then reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for 30 more minutes.
To make the meringue, add egg whites, sugar and cream of tartar to a mixing bowl, and beat all three ingredients together until stiff peaks form.
Spread meringue over the top of the pie (when it has finished baking in step 3) to the edge of the crust, sealing the pie.
Bake in a 350-degree oven for an additional 15 minutes.
Chill before serving.

Notes

For the pie crust: The easiest option is to use a frozen deep dish pie crust. Then you can simply add the filling and bake. Alternatively, you can use a refrigerated or homemade pie crust and press it into a deep pie plate, such as this one.
