Ingredients for pumpkin pie cheesecake: cream cheese, pumpkin, crust, whipped cream, spices, sugar, vanilla.

Recipe overview

  • Graham cracker crust – Way easier than making a traditional pie crust and way more tasty, too. The perfect complement to the cream cheese filling.
  • Cream cheese pumpkin pie filling – Cream cheese, pumpkin puree, whipped cream, powdered sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Creamy, sweet and tangy with a punch of fall flavor from the warm spices. Pour this filling into the crust, smooth it out, and refrigerate it until set.
  • Whipped cream – Heavy cream and powdered sugar get whipped into a fluffy sweet cloud that gets spread all over the top of our pumpkin cream cheese filling.

How to make a graham cracker crust

  1. Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, salt, and brown sugar. Mix it until all of the crumbs are moistened.
  2. Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of pie plate. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to pack it in firmly.
  3. Bake the crust in a 350°F oven for 5-10 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant.
  4. Let the crust cool completely before filling it.

Instructions

Crust:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt. Add melted butter and stir until well combined. Dump the crumbs into a 9 or 9 ½ inch dep dish pie plate. Firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to pack it in.

  • Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant. Cool to room temperature.

Whipped cream:

Filling:

  • In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, pumpkin puree, and spices until smooth and combined. Add half (eyeball it) of the chilled whipped cream to the pumpkin mixture. Beat briefly, until just combined.

  • Place the remaining whipped cream back in the fridge – this will be for topping the pie. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (preferably overnight), until fully chilled.

  • To serve: Top the pie with the remaining whipped cream (I used a large open star tip). Note: the whipped cream might need to be whipped a little more if it has lost volume. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar or graham cracker crumbs (or any other topping desired) and serve.
