Love pumpkin desserts? This recipe is a must for the pumpkin pie fans!
I absolutely LOVE Pumpkin, so I was absolutely thrilled when I saw this creamy cheesecake recipe sitting in my email inbox.
As soon as I opened it, I knew that I would have to feature it, because let’s face it, this pumpkin cheesecake pie looks pretty darn amazing.
Alright, so it’s not technically a cheesecake, nor a traditional pumpkin pie. Does that really matter? No, didn’t think so.
All that matters is that this is going to be one of your all time family favorite recipes which is perfect for after Thanksgiving dinner, Halloween, or simply to enjoy “just because” you can.
This absolutely mouth watering pumpkin cheesecake pie was submitted by llona of Ilona’s Passion.
Ilona said “I am very impressed how this Pumpkin Yogurt Pie came out. It is so perfect. I baked only the bottom crust and the mousse is a no bake cheesecake. It’s so simple and so easy”.
Well the fact that this recipe was described by Ilona as “easy”, was a winner to be featured here.
I am not one to spend a long time in the kitchen without coming out in hot sweats, so if something is easy and looks delicious then it immediately captures my attention.
The yogurt topping makes it a cross between a cheesecake and a mousse, but either way it looks pretty delicious.
How To Make Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie
The pumpkin cheesecake pie is super easy to make in only 6 simple steps.
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350F or 180C. Use a 9″ springform pie pan. Line the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper.
Step 2: Using a wooden spoon, mix the Graham crumbs together with coconut oil or melted butter.
Step 3: Once completely mixed, pour the crumb mixture into the springform pan and bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven once baked and leave to cool.
Step 4: After the base has cooled it’s time to make the pumpkin pie filling. In a separate bowl mix the pumpkin puree, Truwhip, Greek yogurt and cinnamon together. Pour the cheesecake batter on top of the cooled crust and spread so that it forms an even layer.
Step 5: Sprinkle with some cinnamon and add walnuts.
Step 6: Keep in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. A scoop of vanilla ice cream would also accompany this pumpkin pie cheesecake beautifully.
