I’ve had pumpkin pie on the brain for a while now. And you know that pumpkin pie is a must-have at your Thanksgiving dinner.
With Thanksgiving right around the corner just the thought of spending hours upon hours making pumpkin pie was causing me some stress, so I wanted to simplify it…because Thanksgiving is not Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie.
What 5 ingredients do I need for easy pumpkin pie?
- Pumpkin puree
- Sweetened condensed milk
- Eggs
- Pumpkin pie spice
- Frozen pie crust
How to make easy pumpkin pie
- Preheat oven to 450.
- Combine all ingredients, except pie crust. Mix with hand mixer.
- Pour mixture into crust.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 and bake for another 35 minutes. Turn off heat and let pie sit in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
Homemade pie is just SO much better than store bought pie, hands down. Plus there’s some pride that comes along with making homemade pie!
So I put on my Five Ingredient Friday thinking cap and set out to make a 5 ingredient pumpkin pie and am happy to say I have perfected the 5 ingredient pumpkin pie! It’s smooth and silky and is just plain ‘ole delicious pumpkin pie!

Prep Time: 5 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes minutes
Servings: 8 pieces
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 can pumpkin puree 15 oz.
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 oz.
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 frozen pie crust 9 inch, deep dish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450.
In a large bowl combine pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix with a hand mixer or mix very well with a spoon.
Pour mixture into pie crust.
Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat on the oven to 350 and continue baking the pie for 35 minutes. Turn off heat and let the pie sit in the oven for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven (the pie filling will have puffed up, it will slowly settle back down) and allow to cool completely (2 hours-overnight). I like to make the pie the day before and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator.
Notes
I like to serve my pumpkin pie with a dollop of whip cream and I sprinkle a little pumpkin pie spice over the whipped cream.

This recipe is so easy and pretty much fail proof. I had no idea pumpkin pie could be so easy so I never even tried until this. Now I make it almost every year. Thank you!Reply

Huckleberry pie! We have huckleberries out here in the Pacific NW but generally they aren’t commercially sold-it’s a treat!

I’m not a huge pie fan, but my favorite would be pecan pie. Although I make a lot of cherry pies for my husband and his hunting buddies

It is hard to pick a favorite – because it is all about what is fresh and in season! Of course this time of year I love a great pumpkin pie and I make mine with bourbon and a gingersnap crust. In the winter I like cranberry and citrus pie or chocolate pie. Springtime means it’s strawberry season – and i love to make a strawberry pie for Easter. And of course in summer we get all of the great pie fruits- blue and blackberries and stone fruits.

Picking a favorite pie is difficult. I think my favorite is blueberry pie in a graham cracker crust. It is great leftover the next morning for breakfast. The recipe I have would work for your five ingredient recipes, too!

Yummy! We don’t have the pumpkin puree (as well) here, but we do have pumpkins so we can definitely make some at home. What does the pumpkin spice contain mainly Phi? Is it something like nutmeg-cinnamon-cloves? An apple-pie style spice mix?
Wonderful recipe, perfect for the busy days of Thanksgiving. Since we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in Europe, we can definitely use this during the Xmas Holidays;)
Great job (once again)!
Have an amazing weekend,
Panos and Mirella

Pumpkin Pie spice can be substituted by: 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, 1/4 tsp ground ginger, and 1/8 tsp cloves. Some also add in 1/8 tsp ground allspice. This will make enough for one pie. Happy baking!

We totally get why this recipe will be replicated by thousands of Americans in this Thanksgiving:) So simple and delicious AND makes your life a lot easier! Is there a substitute for pumpkin puree Phi? Can you mash some fresh pumpkin and cook this, or this doesn’t work?
Thank you for another yummy idea!

Pumpkin pie is such a staple for Thanksgiving, and here’s to hoping this recipe is replicated by thousands because it truly is simple, delicious, and makes life so much easier 😉 Yes, there is definitely a substitute for the pumpkin puree, you could make your own from fresh a fresh pumpkin. I’ve found what is easiest is to cut a small pumpkin in half, remove the seeds and innards, then cut the halves in half and microwave until soft and you can easily turn them into a puree – I’ve found microwaving it is the best way because it takes one fourth of the time of roasting it. I’ve also make this pie with squash puree (either a butternut or acorn squash work great)!
