Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) about Easy Pumpkin Pie Recipe with Canned Pumpkin Mix

How To Make Easy Pumpkin Pie With Canned Pumpkin

LOOK very carefully at your can of pumpkin! Does it say “pumpkin pie mix” or does it say “Canned pumpkin”? Because there is a BIG difference!

What Is The Difference Between Pumpkin and Pumpkin Pie Mix?

The difference between canned pumpkin and pumpkin pie mix is that the mix already has the spices in it! If you have plain canned pumpkin you will need to add the sugar, spices and a tad of salt yourself. No worries! It isn’t a big deal and you probably already have them at home!

If You Have a Can Of Plain Pumpkin, You Will Need…

• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

If You Have Pumpkin Pie Mix, You Will Only Need…

The other ingredients listed in the recipe below which include:

• Eggs
• Evaporated Milk
• Vanilla
• Almond

While neither of these are pumpkin pie from scratch, both are delicious and will save you a TON of time! Homemade pumpkin pie is WONDERFUL but also requires a lot of time!

How Long Can Pumpkin Pie Sit Out? 

Pumpkin pie is fairly stable and can sit out for a long time at room temperature so long as you cover it up with some plastic wrap or aluminum foil (otherwise it will get crusty and dried out, yuck). Place it back in the fridge after 3 hours.

How Long Does Easy Pumpkin Pie Last In The Refrigerator? 

Pumpkin pie will last about a week if kept refrigerated.

Can I Freeze Pumpkin Pie?

If you freeze the pie once it is baked or even before it is baked, the pie will separate from the pie crust slightly, it doesn’t change the taste, but does affect how it looks.

Can My Dog Eat Pumpkin Pie? 

I don’t know if your dog is like my dog, but my dog CAN eat anything! The question is, should my dog eat pumpkin pie?

While canned plain pumpkin is just fine for dogs and my vet even recommends it, pumpkin pie has other stuff like sugar and spices that aren’t the best for your dog. 

Maybe you could just save some canned pumpkin as a treat for Bowser?

What Kind Of Pie Shell Do I Use?

Feel free to make your own pie shell or to use a store bought pie shell ! I prefer to use the Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Shells in the red box that you’ll find near the canned biscuits at the grocery! 

TIPS AND TRICKS FOR HOW TO MAKE EASY PUMPKIN PIE WITH CANNED PUMPKIN PIE MIX

• This pie is very LOOSE when you make it, it is always a best idea to put a baking sheet beneath it in case of spillage.
• If you REALLY like cinnamon, I always think it tastes best with a little extra sprinkled on top.
• Pumpkin pie and vanilla ice cream. Just saying. Mmmmm.
• Most people also like cool whip or fresh whipped cream with their pumpkin pie.
• You will definitely want to use a whisk for making this dish. It makes a lot of difference when you are trying to mix it up.

A VERSE TO SHARE

From Revelations 7:14-17

And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.  Therefore,

“they are before the throne of God

   and serve him day and night in his temple;

and he who sits on the throne

   will shelter them with his presence.

‘Never again will they hunger;

   never again will they thirst.

The sun will not beat down on them,’

   nor any scorching heat.

For the Lamb at the center of the throne

   will be their shepherd;

‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’

   ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’”
