Scale

- 1 (15 ounces / 425 grams) can pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) evaporated milk
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Crisp Topping:
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (50 grams) old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) chopped pecans
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare your oven by heating to 350°F, ensuring a perfectly calibrated cooking environment for the dessert.
- Create a silky-smooth pumpkin base by thoroughly whisking together pumpkin puree with spices, sugar, eggs, and evaporated milk until completely integrated and free of lumps.
- Transfer the luxurious pumpkin mixture into a generously greased baking dish, spreading it evenly across the surface.
- Craft the crisp topping by blending oats, brown sugar, flour, and melted butter into a crumbly, textured mixture that will provide a delightful crunchy contrast.
- Distribute the oat topping uniformly across the pumpkin filling, ensuring complete and consistent coverage.
- Place the prepared dish into the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, watching for a golden-brown topping and a firm, set filling that signals perfect doneness.
- Allow the dessert to rest and slightly cool for 10-15 minutes, which helps the filling stabilize and makes serving easier.
Notes
- Swap evaporated milk with coconut milk for a dairy-free version that maintains creamy texture and adds subtle tropical flavor.
- Toast oats before mixing crisp topping to enhance nutty undertones and create deeper, more complex taste profile.
- Reduce sugar content by using half regular sugar and half monk fruit sweetener for lower-calorie alternative without compromising deliciousness.
- Garnish with whipped coconut cream instead of traditional whipped cream to make dessert completely dairy-free and more diet-friendly.
