    Ingredients

    Before you start to make this pumpkin pie with sweetened condensed milk recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and efficiently.

    Full measurements are in the recipe card below.

    For the crust

    Graham crackers- you will need about 2 cups of graham crackers. If you don’t have graham crackers, you can use tea biscuits, vanilla wafers, and digestive biscuits.

    Brown sugar- the sugar will add sweetness to the crust.

    Melted butter- melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds pulses, to make sure that the butter doesn’t boil up and explode in the microwave (been there done that), or melt it on the stovetop.

    For the filling

    Pumpkin puree- we like making our own pumpkin puree from fresh pumpkins. You can use either canned pumpkin puree or homemade pumpkin puree, make sure that you strain the extra liquids from your fresh pumpkins.

    Eggs- use room-temperature eggs in this recipe.

    Cinnamon- we love adding cinnamon to our pumpkin pie, it adds so much flavor that compliments the pumpkin flavor.

    Spices- we used ground ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon for this recipe. You can add any of your favorite fall spices like cloves, allspice, and pumpkin spice.

    Sweetened condensed milk- is the key ingredient to make this pie decadent and extra creamy! Use your favorite brand of sweetened condensed milk for this.

    Kosher salt- we like using kosher salt in baking.

    Vanilla extract- vanilla extract adds extra flavor.

    Instructions

    Preheat an oven to 180c (350f) and prepare a 9 inch pie pan on the side.

    Make the crust: pulse graham crackers in a food processor until fine crumbs form. If you don’t have a food processor on hand, place the crackers in a Ziplock bag and smash the crackers with a cup until fine crumbs form.

    Into a small to medium mixing bowl, add the graham crackers crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter.

    Mix with a spoon until the crumbs are coated with butter.

    Transfer the crumbs into a prepared 9-inch pie pan, pressing evenly and firmly into the pan. Bake in a 180c (350f) preheated oven for 5-7 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool while you make the filling.

    Into a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin puree, eggs, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Mix with a whisk until well combined.

    Carefully pour the filling onto the baked crust and bake in a 180c (350f) preheated oven in the third lower rack of the oven for 40-50 minutes or until the edges of the pie are fully set, and the middle seems jiggly.

    Do not overbake this. The pie continues to bake when it cools down and will set completely in the fridge.

    Let the pie cool to room temperature for at least an hour, and let it set in the fridge for at least 4 hours. Overnight is best.

    Top the pie with freshly made whipped cream, chopped pecans, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and caramel sauce if required. (I love adding caramel sauce, it gives it extra flavor, and it's so delicious!)

    Expert Tips

    • Don’t overbeat the mixture! It’s really easy to overbeat the mixture, and that is one of the most common mistakes. To avoid overbeating your mixture, make sure that you mix each egg at a time.
    • For a smooth and creamy pie, make sure that you are using room-temperature ingredients. Before you begin to make this pie, make sure that your eggs and sweetened condensed milk are at room temperature.
    • Release air bubbles by tapping the pan onto a flat surface.
    • Don't overbake the pie! Bake the pie in a 180c (350f) preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until the pie looks completely set on the edges and a bit wobbly in the middle. The pie will be set completely until it's cooled to room temperature.
    • Don’t open the oven door before the pie is fully baked or about to be baked! Drastic changes in the temperature of the pie while baking can cause the pie to crack.
    • Place the pie in the lower third of the oven to stop the pie from browning too quickly.
    • Let your pie cool in the fridge for at least 5 hours. We know it’s very hard to resist eating this delicious pie right away, but you have to let the pie cool and set it in the pan. We like to let the pie sit in the fridge overnight.

    Faq's

    Can I make this with a store-bought pie crust?

    Yes, you can definitely use store-bought pie dough. If you want to make this pie with pie dough, and don't want to do extra work, you can definitely use a store-bought crust.

    Can I make it the day before?

    Yes! the pie keeps great in the fridge. Simply store the cooled pie covered with foil or plastic wrap in the fridge for a day, and when you are ready to serve the pie, serve it either cold or warm.

    How to cut a pie?

    Cutting pie, the right way is essential. To get even and clean cheesecake slices, make sure that you are using a serrated knife.

    Our favorite way to cut pies and cakes is by dipping a long knife into hot water, once the knife warms up, wipe off the excess water, and slice the cake. Dip and wipe the knife between every slice.

    How long will it last?

    This pie will last up to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge.

    Storing

    Store this pie in the fridge (because it contains dairy) covered tightly with plastic wrap for up to 4 days.

    Freezing

    This pie freezes great! to freeze this pie, bake it according to the instructions, then cool it according to the instructions in the fridge.

    When the pie is completely cooled, you can freeze the cake covered in a few layers of plastic wrap or foil. This pie will freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, place the pie in the fridge overnight.

    Substitutions

    Gluten-free- This recipe is really easy to turn gluten-free, simply replace the graham crackers with gluten-free graham crackers, or with gluten-free digestive biscuits.

    Digestive biscuits- People outside of America usually don’t have graham crackers. Don’t worry! You can use tea biscuits, vanilla wafers, and digestive biscuits.
