Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.5 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Step 3
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until slightly golden. Set aside to cool.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Add the pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to the cream cheese mixture. Beat on low speed until the ingredients are well combined and smooth.
Step 6
Gently pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.
Step 7
Bake the cheesecake pie for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly when shaken.
Step 8
Turn off the oven and crack the door open slightly. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracks.
Step 9
Once the pie has cooled, transfer it to the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Step 10
Before serving, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer on high speed until it forms soft peaks. Optionally, sweeten with powdered sugar to taste.
Step 11
Top the chilled pie with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for garnish, if desired. Slice and serve.
