Mini Pumpkin Pies
These bite‑size pumpkin pies are perfect for a quick fall treat. A flaky crust holds a silky pumpkin filling flavored with spices, and each is finished with a dollop of sweet whipped cream.
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
-
Roll out the pie crust and cut circles to fit the muffin cups. Press each crust piece into a cup, forming a small tart shell.
-
In a bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, the whole egg, egg yolk, both sugars, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, and evaporated milk until smooth.
-
Spoon the pumpkin filling into each crust, filling almost to the top.
-
Bake the mini pies for about 15‑20 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden.
-
While the pies cool, make the whipped‑cream topping: beat the heavy cream with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
-
Pipe or dollop a generous amount of whipped cream onto each cooled mini pie and serve.
