Pumpkin Pie Squares! The easiest pumpkin pie recipe you will ever make, but in bar form. A great alternative to a pie because you can make the squares as big or small as you want. Because sometimes you don’t want a whole slice of pie. These are made in 9×13-inch pan and are great for parties too!

Print RecipeIngredients
- GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST:
- 2-1/2 cups fine graham cracker crumbs
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- pinch of salt
- PUMPKIN PIE:
- 1 (15-ounce) can pure pumpkin
- 3 egg yolks, room temperature
- 1 egg, room temperature
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I used Rodelle Baker's Extract)
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- pinch of ground black pepper
Instructions
GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST: Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Line a 9x13-inch pan with foil and spray lightly with baking spray and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, brown sugar and salt. Mix until combined.
Pour mixture into the 9x13-inch pan, using the bottom of a heavy glass to press the mixture firmly onto the bottom. Bake in 350-degree oven for 6-minutes. Remove from oven and let set on the counter while you prepare the pie filling.
PUMPKIN PIE: Change oven temperature to 425-degrees. In a large bowl whisk together the entire can of pure pumpkin, egg yolks, whole egg, can of sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, salt and ground pepper. Whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and mixture is smooth.
Pour mixture onto prepared pie crust and bake in 425-degree oven for 10-minutes. After 10-minutes, decrease the temperature to 350-degrees (leave the pan in the oven) and continue baking for 25-minutes. Squares are done when the center is set and not liquidy.
Remove baked squares from the oven and let set and cool on the counter before transferring to the refrigerator to set and cool completely. Lightly place a piece of plastic wrap on top of pie once it is completely cool.
Notes
Store in the refrigerator.
