🥣 Equipment notesFortunately, you don't need any fancy equipment to make a perfect pumpkin pie with sweetened condensed milk! However, using 2 silicone baking mats and a sturdy rolling pin to roll out the dough are both tools that can make the process so much easier! Then you'll need a pie dish 9 inch / 23 cm to form the crust and bake the pie. As for the delicious filling, you will need a simple hand whisk to combine the ingredients until smooth. And I recommend using a piping bag fitted with the Wilton 2A round nozzle tip to decorate, which will create a finished pie that looks just like mine! And any time you bake you should always use a digital scale to ensure that you are measuring out the exact amounts. I'm also a big fan of double-checking the temperature of my oven with a digital oven thermometer so that I can adjust the temperature if needed. ❓Recipe FAQsShould pie crust be prebaked for pumpkin pie?
