Ingredients
Scale
Pumpkin Base
- 2 cups pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Crisp Topping
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Prepare the pumpkin base: In a medium bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until smooth and well combined. Spread this mixture evenly into a greased 8×8 inch baking dish.
- Make the crisp topping: In another bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the topping becomes crumbly and all ingredients are evenly coated.
- Assemble and bake: Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the pumpkin base. Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pumpkin base is bubbly.
- Cool and serve: Allow the crisp to cool slightly for 10-15 minutes before serving to let it set for easier slicing and serving.
Notes
- You can use canned pumpkin puree for convenience, just ensure it’s pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling.
- For a nutty twist, add 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts to the crisp topping.
- This dessert pairs wonderfully with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat before serving.
