Ingredients You Need

- ground cinnamon
- salt
- ginger

How to Make the Pumpkin Pie Filling for Homemade Mini Pumpkin Pies
- Prepare your pumpkin pie filling by mixing the sugar, salt and spice in small bowl. Beat eggs in large bowl. Stir in pumpkin and sugar-spice mixture. Gradually stir in evaporated milk.
Making the Mini Pie Crusts
- Unroll both of your pie doughs and lay flat.
- Using a bowl or a 3 1/2 or 4 inch round cookie cutter, cut out 12 circles from your 2 9-inch pie crust doughs.
- Place each circle into a pre-greased 12 cup muffin tin pan and press into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin tin.
- Score the bottom of your dough with a fork (This is to keep the crust from bubbling up as it bakes.)
Filling the Pies & Baking
- Pour your pie filling into each muffin tin cup just shy of the top of the pie crust.
- Bake your muffin tin pumpkin pies at 425* for 15 minutes. Then turn your heat down to 350* and bake them for 25-30 minutes. (This is 15-20 minutes less than a regular pie)
- Let these cool on a wire rack for a couple of hours to let the pumpkin filling set.
How to Make The Caramel Whipped Cream
- Place a bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes, 15 minutes if you’re in a hurry before using. It will help the cream whip faster.
- Whip 1 cup heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Add 3 tablespoons caramel and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until stiff peaks form. If you want more flavor, add in more accordingly.
- Add a dollop of whipped cream to each individual muffin tin pie.
- Makes 12 individual portions.
Cooling and Storing Easy Pumpkin Treats
After baking, let the pies cool for two to four hours at room temperature. Then put the pies in the refrigerator and cover it with some plastic wrap. The pie can be stored in the fridge for two to three days.

Hi Laura! Thank you! 🙂
The mini-pies are adorable, but the maple caramel whipped cream is even better – if that’s possible. Thanks for stopping by our Happy Holidays Link Party – be sure to join us again this week (beginning on Saturday at 7 pm ET) and every week through the holidays.
