Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Filling:
    • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
    • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup heavy cream
    • 1/2 cup whole milk
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • For the Crust:
    • 1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust
  • For the Topping:
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • For the Vanilla Whipped Cream:
    • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
    • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2: Prepare Filling

In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, heavy cream, milk, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt until smooth.

Step 3: Bake the Pie

Pour the pumpkin filling into the pre-made pie crust. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted comes out clean.

Step 4: Cool the Pie

Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 5: Caramelize Sugar

Once cooled, sprinkle an even layer of granulated sugar over the top of the pie. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar, creating that beautiful brûlée crust.

Step 6: Make Vanilla Whipped Cream

In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Step 7: Serve

Serve each slice of pie with a dollop of vanilla whipped cream.

Notes

Storage

Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Make-Ahead

You can prepare the pie a day in advance and add the brûlée topping right before serving.

Burning Sugar Caution

If you do not have a kitchen torch, you can use the broiler in your oven to caramelize the sugar. Keep a close eye on it to avoid burning.

Alternative Toppings

Consider adding a sprinkle of nutmeg or allspice for extra flavor, or use a store-bought whipped topping if preferred.
