    • Sheet Pan Pumpkin Pie

    Ingredients

    You'll need some simple staples to make this sheet pan pie crust:

    For the Crust:

    • gingersnap cookies or graham crackers
    • brown sugar
    • butter

    For the Pie:

    • pumpkin puree
    • sugar
    • brown sugar
    • ground ginger
    • cinnamon
    • cloves
    • salt
    • evaporated milk
    • eggs
    • vanilla extract

    Instructions

    Preparation for your crust:

    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a full-size sheet pan with aluminum foil, making sure the foil overhangs the sides for easy lifting. Lightly grease the foil with cooking spray or butter.
    2. In a food processor, pulse the gingersnap cookies until they are reduced to coarse crumbs.
    3. Add the sugar and melted butter to the food processor and blend until the mixture is well combined.
    4. Press the gingersnap crust mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of the prepared sheet pan.
    5. Bake the crust for 6-8 minutes at 350°F (175°C). Then, remove the pan from the oven and let the crust cool while you prepare the filling.

    Filling and Baking:

    1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
    2. Pour the pumpkin pie filling into the cooled gingersnap crust in the sheet pan.
    3. Bake the pie at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to 325°F (165°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center of the pie is slightly jiggly when shaken.
    4. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 2-3 hours, or until it is completely set.
    5. Once the pie is set, slice it into squares and serve it with whipped cream, ice cream, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

    Servings

    This recipe makes 24-30 servings depending on the size you cut your pie slices.

    Tips

    • For a richer flavor, you can use homemade pumpkin puree instead of canned pumpkin puree.
    • If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the gingersnap cookies in a ziplock bag using a rolling pin.
    • Be sure to let the pie cool completely before slicing it, or the filling will ooze out.

    FAQ

    Can I use canned pumpkin puree or fresh pumpkin?

    Both work! Canned puree is convenient and readily available, while fresh pumpkin offers a slightly richer flavor. If using fresh pumpkin, roast and puree it yourself before adding it to the recipe.

    What type of pan should I use?

    A rimmed baking sheet is ideal, as it will contain any bubbling filling.

    Can I use a different type of milk?

    yes, you can use whole milk or dairy free heavy whipping cream in place of the evaporated milk. It may change or alter the texture and taste of the recipe.

    Can I add nuts or raisins to the filling?

    Absolutely! Customize your Sheet Pan Pumpkin Pie by adding chopped nuts, raisins, or even a swirl of cream cheese for added texture and flavor.

    What size should the sheet pan be?

    A standard half-sheet pan (approximately 18 x 13 inches) works well for this recipe. Ensure the pan has a sufficient rim to contain the pumpkin filling.
