This Pumpkin Crisp is a delightful autumn dessert featuring a creamy pumpkin filling layered with a cinnamon-spiced streusel topping. Baked to golden perfection, it combines the warm flavors of pumpkin pie spice with a buttery crumbly crust, making it the perfect comforting treat served warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Ingredients

Scale

Pumpkin Filling

  • 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream

Cinnamon Streusel Topping

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 12-inch cast iron skillet or medium casserole dish to prevent sticking and set it aside.
  2. Make Pumpkin Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla extract until fully combined. Then whisk in the heavy cream until the mixture is smooth. Pour this filling into the prepared skillet evenly.
  3. Prepare Streusel Topping: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the melted butter and stir with a fork or beat with a hand mixer until the mixture becomes crumbly and all ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. Assemble and Bake: Evenly spread the cinnamon streusel topping over the pumpkin filling in the skillet. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes until the pumpkin filling is set and the topping turns golden brown. If the topping starts to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil to prevent burning.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the pumpkin crisp to cool for about 10 minutes to let the filling firm up. Serve warm topped with your choice of ice cream (cinnamon ice cream recommended) or whipped cream for an extra delicious finish.

Notes

  • If using a casserole dish, butter it well to avoid sticking.
  • You can adjust pumpkin pie spice according to your taste preference.
  • For a nutty variation, add chopped pecans or walnuts to the streusel topping.
  • Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
  • Serving with cinnamon or vanilla ice cream enhances the flavor combination.
