Ingredients
2 cups pumpkin puree
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
1/3 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, heavy cream, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Add cold butter cubes and mix with fingers or pastry cutter until coarse crumbs form. Stir in pecans if using.
3. Pour pumpkin mixture into a greased 8×8-inch baking dish. Spread topping evenly.
4. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40–45 minutes, or until top is golden and filling is set but slightly jiggly.
5. Let cool slightly. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Use only pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
For added crunch, don’t skip the pecans.
Reheat leftovers in the oven for the best texture.
