Made from scratch, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Pie is creamy, rich, and delicious. Spiced pumpkin cheesecake filling sits on a homemade graham cracker crust. The result is a scrumptious pumpkin pie treat that satisfies like a cheesecake.
Preheat the oven to 325° F. Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, salt, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Press crust into a 9-in pie shell or pan.
Bake the crust for about 10 minutes or until golden brown and firm. Let the crust cool.
Pie Filling
Preheat the oven to 375° F.
Whip the cream cheese and sugar until fluffy and well combined using a handheld or stand mixer. Mix in the pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice until combined.
Add heavy cream, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until incorporated. Do not over-whip at this stage.
Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, ensuring not to overfill (there may be a small amount of excess filling).
Bake the pie for 30-35 minutes until the filling is completely set and firm to the touch.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving.
