1 can (16 oz.) Libby's solid pack pumpkin
¾ c. granulated sugar
½ t. salt
1 t. ground cinnamon
½ t. ground ginger
¼ t. ground cloves
1½ C. (12-oz. can) evaporated milk
1 9 inch, deep dish, unbaked pie crust
Combine filling ingredients in order given; pour into pie crust. Bake in preheated 425˚ oven for 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350˚. Bake an additional 40-50 minutes, or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool; garnish with whipped topping, if desired.
