Easy Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Yum yum pumpkin pie! This easy pumpkin pie recipe makes the most amazing pumpkin pie, everyone will gobble it up!  People will beg you to make this pumpkin pie every Thanksgiving (along with the pumpkin cheesecake)!

Easy Pumpkin Pie Recipe With Sweetened Condensed Milk

This is the easiest pumpkin pie recipe ever and is perfect for beginners.  This recipe is using store-bought prepared pie crust and canned pumpkin puree.  Of course, feel free to use the homemade pie crust (I have a very easy food processor pie crust recipe) and make your own pumpkin puree by grinding up the cooked fresh pumpkin, but store-bought ingredients will work just fine! You can use regular pie crust or graham cracker crust – graham cracker goes really well with pumpkin!

Homemade Pumpkin Pie Slice

The secret ingredient in this easy pumpkin pie recipe is sweetened condensed milk.  It serves two purposes in this pumpkin pie.  The number one purpose of the sweetened condensed milk is to provide a smooth creamy texture and correct consistency for the filling, and the number two purpose is to act as a sweetener.  No extra sugar is added to this pumpkin pie as the sweetened condensed milk provides all necessary sweetness.  I also use sweetened condensed milk in my homemade granola bars and cookie dough truffles – so yum!

Note – this pumpkin pie is sweet enough for most tastes, but I wouldn’t call it extremely sweet.  Just the right amount of sweetness.  If you like your desserts extra sweet, you can add an extra 1/4 cup of brown sugar to the filling.  Here’s an easy test to see if you’d like extra sugar: do you prefer dark chocolate or milk chocolate? If you prefer milk chocolate, you’ll probably like it with an extra brown sugar, and if you prefer dark chocolate, leave the recipe as is.

  1. Would this recipe work for sweet potato pie (substituting sweet potato puree)? Has anyone tried that variation? :)

  2. I used one can 11.25 oz, sweetened coconut condensed milk, it was organic, made by Nature’s Charm + 3 fl. oz of Silk unsweetened cashew milk. We do eat eggs but they are from our own ducks so we know they aren’t being abused. Thanks for the recipe.

  3. I’m hoping to use your walnut pie crust for a pumpkin pie. I need to make the crust today, tomorrow at the latest. Your pumpkin pie recipe says it would be good with a graham cracker crust or your walnut crust but I can’t imagine how you would bake that. The recipe also says at the end to use an unbaked pie shell. Should I use another type of piecrust, other than the baked walnut crust? Surely it would burn if I use that and baked it first and it doesn’t seem like it would hold up if I baked it raw with the pumpkin filling in it. I hope you can clarify this for me right away because the nut crust sounds delicious! Thanks, Jan
