Ingredients
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1 package pre-made pie crust

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs until well beaten. Add the evaporated milk and continue whisking until the mixture is smooth.
- Gradually add the egg and milk mixture to the pumpkin mixture, stirring until fully combined.
- Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface and cut out circles (about 4-5 inches in diameter). You can use a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass.
- Fit the circles into a greased muffin tin, pressing them gently into the bottoms and sides to form mini pie shells.
- Pour the pumpkin filling into each crust, filling them about ¾ full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before gently removing the mini pies from the muffin tin.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with a dollop of whipped cream.
