Pumpkin Pie in a Muffin Tin Notes
- You can prepare these miniature pies in advance and freeze them! Place them in an airtight food container or zipper-sealed storage bag in the freezer, and then pull them out when you’re ready to serve them to your loved ones. Because they’re small, they defrost super quickly.
- Add a dollop of the Cool Whip to the top or get fancy and put some in a piping bag to add a special design on top. If you’re not a fan of Cool Whip, you can omit it from this recipe.
- With this recipe, you can make a minimum of 14 pies and up to 16 pies, depending on how much crust and filling you use for each one.
- Make extra and freeze so you have them ready at a moment’s notice.
- You can put a dollop of cool whip on top of each of the mini pies, or you can get fancy and use a piping tip and bag and pipe little flowers on top.
Mini Pumpkin Pie Variations
- Instead of Cool Whip as the topping, you can drizzle caramel on top or toss a few mini white chocolate chip morsels over your Mini Pumpkin Pies.
- You can add extra pumpkin spice and a touch of cinnamon to your pumpkin puree, depending on the type of flavor you’d like to create for your miniature pies.
- If you prefer making a pie crust from scratch, feel free to do so. The refrigerated version simply saves time and effort.
How to Store
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- May be frozen for up to 3 months. Cool completely, then layer between parchment paper and place in a large freezer-safe container.
Pumpkin Mini Pies FAQs
Can I use fresh pumpkin?
I’d recommend sticking with canned pumpkin puree. However, if you prefer to prepare your own puree using fresh pumpkin, feel free to do so.
Can I use whipped cream instead of Cool Whip?
Absolutely. Whipped cream and Cool Whip have a similar taste, so you can add it to the top of your pumpkin pies directly before serving to give them that extra flavor.
Can I use puff pastry instead of pie crust?
You can attempt to prepare this recipe with puff pastry. It should turn out just as good, but the crust will be lighter and fluffier than it would if you used the refrigerated pie crust.
