Step-by-Step Instructions

Let’s bake your Homemade Pumpkin Pie Crisp!

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Pumpkin Filling: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt. Mix together until well-combined. Add in the eggs and evaporated milk, stirring until smooth. Pour this mixture into a greased baking dish.
3. Make the Crisp Topping: In another bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the ingredients are just combined—a bit crumbly texture is perfect!
4. Layer on the Topping: Spread the oat topping evenly over the pumpkin filling in the baking dish.
5. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pumpkin filling is set.
6. Cool and Serve: Allow the crisp to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, maybe with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired!

Top Tips for Perfecting Homemade Pumpkin Pie Crisp

1. Substitutions: If you want to make it even healthier, consider using almond flour instead of regular flour. You might also try coconut oil instead of butter.
2. Timing: Keep an eye on the topping—if it starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil while it finishes baking.
3. Common Mistakes: Make sure you’re combining the ingredients well. Uneven mixing could lead to inconsistent flavors throughout the dish.

Storing and Reheating Tips

Storing: Once your Homemade Pumpkin Pie Crisp is completely cool, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in an airtight container. If you’d like, double the recipe and freeze half for later!

Reheating: When reheating, microwave individual portions for about 30 seconds or warm it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. This way, it will keep that delightful crisp topping intact.

Now you’re all set with a fantastic recipe that your friends and family will cherish! Get baking, and enjoy every bite of this scrumptious Homemade Pumpkin Pie Crisp!
