Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 egg
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)
- 2 tablespoons butter (for streusel)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 425ยฐF (220ยฐC).
-
Prepare Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix well until crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture into a 10-inch pie plate, forming a firm crust along the bottom and sides.
-
Prepare Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, egg, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and ground cloves until smooth and well combined.
-
Assemble Pie: Pour the pumpkin mixture over the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.
-
Bake First Round: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
-
Reduce Oven Temperature: After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
-
Prepare Streusel Topping: While the pie is baking, prepare the streusel topping. In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and ground cinnamon. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chopped walnuts.
-
Add Streusel: After reducing the oven temperature, sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the partially baked pie.
-
Continue Baking: Return the pie to the oven and continue baking for an additional 40 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
-
Serve: Once baked, allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
-
Storage: Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It can also be frozen for longer storage; just make sure to wrap it securely before freezing.
