Ingredients
Pumpkin Pie Layer
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
⅔ cup heavy cream
Cinnamon Streusel
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a 12-inch cast iron skillet or a medium casserole dish. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla extract. Whisk in heavy cream until smooth. Pour into prepared skillet and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add melted butter and stir with a fork until crumbly. Spread cinnamon streusel topping on top of pumpkin pie mixture in an even layer. You can also beat with a hand mixer until crumbly if needed.
Bake until filling is set and top is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. If the crumb topping browns too quickly, you can lightly cover the top with foil to prevent further browning.
Let cool for 10 minutes so the pie filling can firm up. Serve warm topped with ice cream or whipped cream. A great pairing is cinnamon ice cream if available.
Notes
Make sure the topping is evenly spread for a perfect crisp texture
Avoid overbaking to keep the filling moist
Let it cool slightly before serving for better flavor
Use a sturdy baking dish to prevent spills
