Equipment

  • 9×13 inch baking dish (glass, stoneware or cast iron)
  • mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

Pumpkin Filling:

  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin purée
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Crumble Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ¾ cup brown sugar (packed)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional, but so good!)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  • Make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, spices, and salt until smooth. Pour into the prepared dish.
  • Mix the crumble: In a separate bowl, stir together flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts. Drizzle in melted butter and mix until it looks like chunky crumbs.
  • Assemble: Sprinkle crumble topping evenly over the pumpkin mixture.
  • Bake for 45–55 minutes, until the center is set (a little jiggle is okay) and the top is golden brown.
  • Cool slightly before serving. Best served warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Pro Tip: If you want extra crunch, sprinkle an additional 2 tablespoons of oats over the crumble before baking.
