Ingredients

Scale

Pumpkin Filling

  • 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream

Cinnamon Streusel Topping

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 12-inch cast iron skillet or medium casserole dish to prevent sticking and set aside.
  2. Make Pumpkin Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, 1 cup sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth. Carefully whisk in the heavy cream until the mixture is fully combined. Pour this filling into the prepared skillet evenly.
  3. Prepare Streusel Topping: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and stir with a fork until the mixture becomes crumbly. For a finer texture, you may use a hand mixer. Spread this cinnamon streusel topping evenly over the pumpkin filling.
  4. Bake: Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the pumpkin filling is set and the streusel topping is golden brown. If the topping browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil to prevent burning.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the crisp to cool for about 10 minutes so the filling can firm up slightly. Serve warm, ideally topped with your choice of cinnamon ice cream or whipped cream for a delicious finish.

Notes

  • Use a cast iron skillet or casserole dish to create a rustic presentation.
  • Adjust pumpkin pie spice according to your taste preference for a milder or stronger spice flavor.
  • If the topping browns too fast, tent with foil during baking.
  • Serve warm with cinnamon ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
  • This crisp can also be refrigerated and gently reheated before serving.
