pumpkin pie

i made this for thanksgiving and loved it! i'd never made a pumpkin pie before, so i was nervous about how it would turn out. there was no need!

1 pie pumpkin
1 1/3 c sweetened condensed milk
1 egg
1 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1 c hot water
1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell

cut pumpkin in half and scoop out seeds. place pumpkin halves flesh-side down on foil and bake at 350 for 1 1/2 hours till tender. let cool, them scoop out flesh and mash (i used a food processor). beat in milk, spices, and water till smooth. pour into pie shell and bake at 375 for 55-65 minutes. the center will still move slightly when it's done. cool completely before serving.
