Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch), thawed
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

How to Make Mini Pumpkin Pies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Use a round cutter or a glass to cut out circles that are about 4 inches in diameter.
  3. Gently press each circle into a greased muffin tin to form mini pie shells. Make sure to press into the bottom and up the sides.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well blended.
  5. Gradually stir in the heavy cream until the filling is smooth and creamy.
  6. Pour the pumpkin filling into each mini pie crust, filling them about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the mini pies cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure your pumpkin puree is pure and not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugars and spices.
  • Don’t overfill the mini pies; keeping them three-quarters full helps prevent spills.
  • For a richer flavor, let the pies cool completely before serving, allowing the spices to meld beautifully.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute half the heavy cream with coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Add a pinch of ginger or allspice to the filling for extra warmth.
  • Top with crushed pecans or walnuts before baking for added crunch.

What to Serve With It

  • A warm cup of spiced chai or apple cider.
  • Vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast.
  • A cheese platter with sharp cheddar to balance the sweetness.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
