How long does it take to bake a pumpkin pie?

Baking time for pumpkin pie can vary depending on the temperature of the oven and the size of the pie dish used, but here's a general guideline for baking a traditional 9-inch pumpkin pie:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

2. Prepare the pie crust and pour the pumpkin pie filling into the crust.

3. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.

4. After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking.

5. Bake the pumpkin pie for an additional 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.

6. Remove from the oven and place the pie on a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

It's always best to keep a close eye on your pie as it bakes, and adjust the baking time as needed to avoid overcooking. Ovens can vary, so it's also a good idea to use the toothpick test to ensure the pie is set and properly baked.
