Combine sugar, cinnamon, salt, cloves, and nutmeg in a small bowl.
Beat eggs lightly in a large bowl.
Stir in pumpkin and sugar-spice mixture and vanilla.
Gradually stir in evaporated milk. Pour into pie shell.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue to bake until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Approximately 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and set on a wire rack to cool to room temperature.
Notes
Baking the Pie: I put foil over the pie about half way through the baking process so it didn't get too dark. I do not like my pie crust to be too dark or burnt.
