Ingredients

Scale

Pumpkin Filling

  • ¾ cup pumpkin puree
  • 14 ounces marshmallow fluff
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 1¼ cups crushed graham crackers
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup melted salted butter

Topping

  • 8 ounces whipped topping or 3 cups whipped cream

Garnish (Optional)

  • Whipped cream
  • Pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust. In a medium bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, light brown sugar, and melted salted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture holds together when pressed.
  2. Form the crust. Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to create an even crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill and set while preparing the filling.
  3. Make the pumpkin filling. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, marshmallow fluff, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  4. Assemble the pie. Spoon the pumpkin filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  5. Add the topping. Spread whipped topping or freshly whipped cream over the pumpkin filling layer, covering it evenly for a beautiful finish.
  6. Chill the pie. Refrigerate the assembled pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm and the flavors meld together.
  7. Garnish and serve. Before serving, optionally add a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice on top for added flavor and decorative appeal.

Notes

  • Ensure the pumpkin puree is unsweetened for best flavor balance.
  • If marshmallow fluff is unavailable, you may substitute with an equal amount of mini marshmallows melted briefly and cooled.
  • The pie is best served chilled and consumed within 2-3 days for freshness.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute graham crackers with gluten-free crumbs.
  • To make your own whipped cream, whip heavy cream with a bit of sugar until stiff peaks form.
