Pumpkin Pie Crisp with a Buttery Crust Ingredients: For the Crust: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 12 tablespoons cold water (as needed) For the Pumpkin Filling: 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger 2 large eggs 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk For the Crisp Topping: 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Directions: Prepare the Crust: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough just begins to come together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Pre-Bake the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9×13-inch baking dish. Transfer the dough to the baking dish, pressing it into the bottom. Prick the crust all over with a fork and pre-bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let it cool slightly. Make the Pumpkin Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, eggs, and evaporated milk until smooth. Pour the pumpkin mixture over the pre-baked crust. Prepare the Crisp Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture becomes crumbly. Assemble and Bake: Evenly sprinkle the crisp topping over the pumpkin filling. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pumpkin filling is set. Cool and Serve: Allow the Pumpkin Pie Crisp to cool slightly before serving. Top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
