Easy Homemade Pumpkin Pie with a Little Pecan Crunch

This fall spiced pumpkin pie filling comes together in minutes with a short list of very simple ingredients that need nothing more than the touch of a handheld beater to mix, pour, and bake!

Cozy Warming Spices Add Depth and flavor to a Simple Pumpkin Filling

A few warming spices like cinnamon, ground ginger, pumpkin pie spice, and ground allspice add the cozy touch of warm spiced flavor to this easy pie made with plain, unflavored canned pumpkin puree. A bit of brown sugar brings a caramel-like sweetness.

The whisked eggs and evaporated milk add a silky creaminess and help bind and bake the pie as it sits in a hot oven waiting to fill the kitchen with the cozy spicy scents of fall!

A Pecan Crust Adds Delicious Crumbly Texture and Warm Nutty Flavor

To keep things easy and no-fuss, we’ll use a store-bought pecan pie crust which adds a delicious nutty taste and a crunchy texture to the finished pumpkin pie recipe. The nutty pecan-flavored crust also works really well with the flavors in the spiced pumpkin pie filling.

One becomes an extension of the other, and when you bite into the pecan pie, the pecan flavors in the crust really add another easy and elegant layer of delicious flavor.

Use a simple pre-made pecan pie crust by Diamond, which comes already assembled and shaped. It should be availale in the baking aisle at your local grocery store. I would buy at least 2 crusts.

This lovely pecan crust darkens slightly as it bakes and holds the pumpkin pie filling beautifully. It bakes to a lovely crumbly texture that holds its form perfectly until you cut into it with your fork.

Here’s what you’ll want handy to make this lovely seasonal, simple, and delectable libby’s pumpkin pie that truly anyone can bake.

How To Make A Simple Pumpkin Pie Recipe for the Holidays or Fall

This filling will make some extra, so you can either:

• Fill one 9-inch crust full and use the extra as desired, for mini-pies, or individual desserts
• Use the pumpkin pie recipe for 2 pies and fill two 9-inch pecan pie crusts, dividing evenly as best you can between the 2 crusts, or filling each about 3/4 of the way, leaving some border to stretch the filling for 2 pies.
• After pouring and dividing, if necessary, use a ladle to re-distribute filling evenly between the 2 crusts.

Can I use This Easy Pumpkin Pie Filling Recipe with A Different Crust?

• Yes you can. If you have a nut allergy and prefer not to use a pecan crust, you can use an alternative crust.
• If you already have a graham cracker crust, favorite pie crust mix, or homemade pie crust recipe, you can use this simple pumpkin pie recipe as a filling for your favorite 9-inch pie pan.
• Use a 9-inch wide container with about a 1/8 inch thick crust inside.
• Just to give you a guide or idea, the tin this pecan crust comes with is a 9-inch pie tin with about a 1 to 1.5 inch depth.
• If you want to use up more of the filling in one pie, use a 9-inch deeper / deep dish pie pan, line with your desired homemade crust, pour in filling.
