Ingredients
Scale
- 1 graham cracker crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (100% pumpkin)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: If using a store-bought graham cracker crust, set it aside. For homemade, crush graham crackers finely and mix with melted butter and a pinch of sugar. Press into a pie dish and chill.
- Melt the marshmallows: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the mini marshmallows with 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Stir constantly to prevent sticking. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whip the cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the remaining heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
- Make the pumpkin mixture: In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth.
- Combine the filling: Fold the cooled marshmallow mixture into the pumpkin mixture. Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully incorporated. The filling should be light and fluffy.
- Assemble the pie: Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Chill the pie: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
- Serve: Slice and enjoy! Top with whipped cream or crushed graham crackers for extra flair.
