Preparation Steps
- In a medium saucepan, combine unflavored gelatin, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. Stir until well mixed.
- Gradually add milk and heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring continuously until it thickens slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Avoid boiling.
- When thickened, remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Once the gelatin mixture has cooled slightly, whisk in the egg yolks and canned pumpkin until fully blended.
- Allow the mixture to cool further before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes, until partially set.
- While the pumpkin mixture chills, whip egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually add sugar until stiff peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the chilled pumpkin mixture into the whipped egg whites, then fold in the whipped cream until blended.
- Pour the fluffy pumpkin filling into your baked pie crust and smooth the top gently.
- Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 to 5 hours to set completely.
- Before serving, whip up extra cream to drizzle over the pie and sprinkle nutmeg on top.

Notes
For best results, let the pie chill overnight for improved flavor and texture.
