by HollyA rich and creamy baked pumpkin cheesecake with warm fall spices and a creamy whipped topping. This luscious dessert recipe takes just 5 minutes of prep time and gives perfect results every time!
One of my favorite things about fall is all of the amazing Pumpkin recipes! Baked into a pie or even as a quick Pumpkin inspired snack, pumpkin just screams warm cozy fall to me!
This Pumpkin Cheesecake recipe should’ve been named easier than pie, it’s one of the quickest you’ll ever find! It literally takes just a few minutes to prepare; just toss all of the ingredients into the blender and pour it into a pie crust and bake! Just like that, it turns out perfect every time!
When pouring this into the crust, you’re going to want to ensure it’s about 1/4″ from the top so it doesn’t overflow. If you have a little bit of extra batter left in your blender, just pour it into lined mini muffin pans mini and bake about 18 minutes or until set! Perfect little bite sized testers!
I’ve used both homemade or store bought graham crusts in the recipe with perfect results! Pumpkin Pie Spice is a mixture I don’t use very often so I usually just mix up a small batch at home in the fall since I have all of the ingredients on hand anyhow! I top this with whipped topping or homemade whipped cream and a little pinch of fresh nutmeg.
