This recipe serves 8.

1 (15 ounce) can canned pumpkin puree (not seasoned)
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated skim milk
2 eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons Moscato or other sweet dessert wine
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust

Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk and egg yolks. Mix in the nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, wine, honey, sugar and vanilla extract.

In another bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks. Fold both mixtures together and pour into the pie shell. Bake, after 10 minutes, reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and bake another 25 to 35 minutes, until the filling is set but still moves slightly in the center.

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before serving.

NOTE: If the edges of the pie crust begin to brown too much during the cooking time, cover just the edges with foil to prevent burning.
