Our take on this holiday mainstay results in a smooth, creamy custard (no cracks or dryness here!) atop a crumbly crust. You'll be glad to have this recipe in your back pocket when the oven's being exhausted on Thanksgiving.
We tested our pumpkin pie recipes with Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin. Organic or homemade pumpkin puree will likely contain more moisture and may prevent the filling from setting up.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work — and work well.

The Small Dish

The Anyhand Mitts
Ingredients
Crust
- 2 tablespoons (½ stick) butter
- ½ cup (40g) graham cracker crumbs
Filling
- ½ cup (115g) canned pumpkin puree, (Libby's 100% pumpkin pure preferred)
- ½ cup (120ml) heavy cream
- ¼ cup (30g) brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin spice
- ¼ teaspoon ginger powder
Preparation
- Make the crust: Add butter to the Anyday dish and melt in the microwave. Add the graham cracker crumbs and mix well. Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the dish until the crease.
- Make the filling: In a separate bowl, whisk the pumpkin purée, heavy cream, brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, vanilla, pumpkin spice, and ginger until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture into the dish over the crust.
- Cook uncovered in the microwave at Power Level 6tooltip for 5-6 minutes, or until the top of the pie has darkened slightly and the mixture looks set around the edges but jiggles slightly when gently shaken. Note: the pie will firm up once cold.
- Cool completely in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight. Serve by itself or with a dollop of whipped cream.
Serving suggestions & tips
- Try replacing the graham cracker with any cookie flavor you like, such as lemon or chocolate.
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham cracker crumbs.
- Add spices such as cinnamon, clove, allspice, and nutmeg if you like your pumpkin pie extra spicy.
- Substitute pumpkin puree for sweet potato puree if desired.
Recipe notes
- If using whole graham crackers, you can make coarse graham cracker crumbs by pulsing them in a food processor or placing them in a Ziploc bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
- Different pumpkin purees can yield undesirable results. Make sure to select a drier puree that does not have a runny texture.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
