Description

A delicious pumpkin pie with a creamy cream cheese swirl, perfect for the fall season!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Pillsbury* Refrigerated Deep Dish Pie Crust (softened as directed on box)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, not softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • for garnishes: sweetened whipped cream (caramel sauce)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350ºF.
  2. Place pie crust on baking sheet. Pie crust should be thawed and chilled before baking for best results. Using a fork, poke the bottom of the crust 6-8 times, set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar on low speed until well blended. Add egg; beat well. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, spices, salt and heavy cream until combined. Pour some of the pumpkin mixture into pie crust.
  5. Carefully dollop cream cheese mixture on top of pumpkin mixture, alternating both. Swirl the mixture with the tip of a knife to create swirls.
  6. Bake on baking sheet for 50 to 60 minutes or until set and a knife inserted near center comes out clean.
  7. If pie crust is browning too much, cover edges with 2 to 3 inch strips of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil in the last 15 minutes of baking.
  8. Cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate until chilled (3 to 4 hours).
  9. Serve pie with sweetened whipped cream. Store covered in refrigerator.

Notes

  • For best results, make sure the cream cheese is not softened before mixing.
  • This pie tastes even better the next day after the flavors have melded together.
