FAQ & Recipe Tips for Making this Easy Pumpkin Pie
Can I use Homemade Graham Cracker Crust?
Absolutely! I love the ease of a store bought graham cracker crust but the butter flavor of a homemade crust compliments this pie beautifully!

How to serve this pumpkin pie-
This pie is delicious on it’s own but it is also amazing topped with whipped cream or cool whip! I like to make a batch of cream cheese whipped cream to have on hand for topping our pie.
How to store this pie-
This pie keeps well for 3-4 days in the refrigerator. I like to bake the pie and wrap it in aluminum foil or plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator. This is great for leftover pumpkin pie or if you make your pie ahead of time to have on hand for parties or dinners.
Can I make this pie sugar free or gluten free?
Yes! If you have dietary restrictions this is an easy pie to make sugar free or gluten free. For a sugar and gluten free pie crust check out my keto graham cracker crust or you can use gluten free graham crackers to make a pie crust. For the pie filling you can swap out the brown sugar for brown Swerve for a sugar free pie filling!
What is the best canned pumpkin for this recipe?
For this recipe you can use home canned pumpkin puree, fresh pumpkin puree or store bought canned. Just make sure to use pure pumpkin without any added sugar or spices. You want pure pumpkin puree not canned pumpkin pie filling.
What kitchen tools do I need to make this easy pumpkin pie recipe?
There is no fancy equipment needed to make this delicious pumpkin pie. If you’re going to make graham cracker crust you’ll need a food processor to make graham cracker crumbs. For the pie filling you’ll need a large mixing bowl, a whisk, and a pie pan.
