Ingredients
- 15 oz canned pumpkin puree
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
Step 3
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Step 4
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
Step 5
Melt the unsalted butter and drizzle it evenly over the cake mix layer.
Step 6
Scatter the chopped pecans evenly across the top for an added crunchy texture.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
Step 8
Allow the pumpkin crunch to cool completely at room temperature before serving. This helps the layers set properly.
Step 9
Cut into squares and serve with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
