Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 8 ounces Mascarpone cheese, room temperature
• 1 cup Canned pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 optional Whipped cream, for serving

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a glass to press it down firmly.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely while you prepare the filling.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed.

Step 6

Add the pumpkin puree and brown sugar to the mascarpone, and mix until thoroughly combined.

Step 7

Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Step 8

Add the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 9

Gradually pour in the heavy cream while mixing, and continue to beat until the filling is smooth and creamy.

Step 10

Pour the filling into the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 11

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.

Step 12

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature on a wire rack before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.

Step 13

Serve the pie cold, topped with whipped cream if desired.
