Pie Crust
In a food processor, combine flour, salt and cold butter pieces. Pulse the ingredients 8-10 times, until the butter is the size of small peas.
Add the ice water 1 Tablespoon at a time, pulsing 3-5 times after each addition, until the mixture just comes together. The mixture will be crumbly, but should just hold together if it's pressed together.
Turn the crumbly dough mixture out onto a tea towel. Pull the ends of the towel up and twist them to wrap up the dough mixture completely in the towel and help form it into a disc.
Remove the disc from the towel and wrap it up completely in plastic wrap. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Pumpkin Pie Filling
Preheat the oven to 400˚ and grease a 9.5 inch pie plate with butter or baking spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, evaporated milk and eggs and whisk to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, white sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice and cloves.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk everything together until no lumps remain. Chill the filling in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Roll the chilled pie dough out on a floured surface until it is approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Carefully lay the rolled pie dough onto the prepared pie plate and gently press it down to lay flat against the sides and bottom.
Using the index finger and thumb on one hand and a finger or thumb on the other hand, gently pinch the pie dough in between the fingers to form a V to crimp the edges.
Pour the chilled filling in the prepared crust and bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes until a knife comes out clean when inserted into the middle.
Let the pie cool for 30 minutes outside of the oven and then transfer it to the refrigerator to cool completely. Pie can be served chilled or at room temperature.
