Dessert Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

  4. 4

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the dessert to cool for at least 1 hour before serving. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
