Ingredients
- 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, honey, heavy cream, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Helpful Tips
- Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for the best flavor.
- If you’re new to making pie crust, using a store-bought version can save time and ensure perfect results.
- For an extra touch of indulgence, serve the pie with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of honey.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To enjoy a slice, simply reheat in the microwave for about 20 seconds or until warm.
Ingredient Substitutions
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream.
- You can replace the honey with maple syrup for a different yet delicious flavor profile.
Pairings
This Honey Pumpkin Pie pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of spiced chai tea or a cozy glass of apple cider. For a complete autumn-inspired meal, serve it alongside roasted turkey and a crisp green salad.
