Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Store-bought pie crust (or homemade, if preferred)
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface and use a 4-inch round cutter (or a similar-sized cup or bowl) to cut 12 circles.
Press each circle into the cups of a standard muffin tin to create mini pie shells. Press gently to shape them into the cups, letting the edges of the dough slightly overhang.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Stir in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
Spoon the filling evenly into the prepared mini pie shells, filling them nearly to the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22–25 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the pies to cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve plain, with a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of melted peanut butter for extra decadence!
