This Pumpkin Pie Crisp with Streusel Topping is a delicious and easy dessert for this fall and a must-have for your Thanksgiving dessert. Featuring an oat and pecan crust with a pumpkin pie filling and a sweet streusel topping.
I was trying this recipe out this recipe for Pumpkin Pie Crisp with Streusel Topping as a possible dessert for Thanksgiving and to my delight, it was such a winner. I believe I enjoyed this over our traditional pumpkin pie. The filling for this crisp is very similar to a pumpkin pie and the crust isn’t your traditional pie crust. It’s a delicious oat and pecan streusel that’s also used as the topping.

Pumpkin Pie Crisp
If you love apple crisp and pumpkin pie, you’ll love this pumpkin pie crisp. You’ll also love that this fall dessert takes less time to bake than the traditional pumpkin pie. That’s a win right there.
Warm fall spices are blended with pure pumpkin and a bit of cream to make the creamy pumpkin pie filling. I’ve already mentioned how amazing the streusel topping is but it bears a reminder that it is oh-so-good!
Should you serve pumpkin pie crisp warm or cold?
It’s a personal choice whether to serve it warm or cold. I like it warm with a scoop of ice cream on top so that the ice cream melts into the crisp.
How to store pumpkin pie crisp
It’s best to store the pumpkin crisp covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can reheat leftover crisp in the microwave.
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Electric hand mixer
- Oven-safe skillet or cast iron skillet (12-inch)
Ingredients
Mixture for the crust and topping
- 2 cups quick oats
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, very cold, cubed
Pumpkin Pie Mixture
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 can (15 ounces) pure pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
How to Make Pumpkin Pie Crisp
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly spray a 12-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside. If you do not have an oven-safe skillet, a 13×9-inch baking pan will work.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice together. Add in the cubed butter and use your hands or a fork to combine. A pastry cutter will work, too. You want the butter to be no larger than pea-sized crumbles.
Step 3
Spread 3½ cups of the crisp mixture over the bottom of the skillet and push the crust mixture up the side and press flat. Set the remaining crisp mixture aside for the topping.
Step 4
In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer to combine the eggs and sugar until combined. Add pumpkin, cream, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and kosher salt. Blend together until smooth.
Step 5
Pour the pumpkin mixture on top of the layer of crisp in the skillet. Sprinkle the remaining crisp mixture over top of the pumpkin.
Step 6
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool a few minutes before serving.
