Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Whisk water and gelatin together in a small bowl, then set aside to bloom for about 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Meanwhile, beat egg yolks in a medium heat-safe bowl until thick. Beat in 1 cup sugar, then pumpkin puree, and then evaporated milk until each is fully incorporated. Add cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, ginger, and salt; mix until well combined.
  4. 4 Place the bowl over a double boiler and cook over boiling water, whisking constantly, until thick, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. 5 Add the gelatin mixture, and whisk until fully dissolved. Remove from the heat and cool until mixture thickens and mounds when dropped by the spoonful, 15 to 20 minutes.
  6. 6 While the pumpkin mixture is cooling, beat egg whites in medium glass, metal, or ceramic bowl, until soft peaks form. Gradually mix in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
  7. 7 Fold cooled pumpkin mixture into the egg white mixture.
  8. 8 Transfer filling to the graham cracker crust and chill in the refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.
  9. 9 When ready to serve, slice and enjoy!
