There’s nothing better than the smell of pumpkin and various spices cooked in the crockpot during the fall season.

How to make pumpkin pie pudding in the crockpot?

1. Prepare the slow cooker: First, start by coating the pot with vegetable spray to prevent sticking. 
2. Get the ingredients ready: Next, you’ll need your puree. Then, prepare eggs and biscuit mix (I use Bisquick) which will help the pudding set. The butter and evaporated milk add richness to the dish. You’ll also need sugar. Don’t forget your spices and vanilla extract!
3. Combine the ingredients: Mix up all ingredients until smooth.
4. Cook it: Transfer pudding mix into the crockpot and set to low (4-6 hrs).
5. Serve: Top it with ice cream or whipped cream and serve warm. 

Variations on slow cooker pumpkin pie pudding:

• Use other purees: Feel free to swap the purees, and use sweet potato puree instead. It is another fall classic ingredient loved by everyone!
• Add some crunch: Top with ginger snaps or candied pecans.
• Use pancake mix: Don’t have a biscuit mix? Pancake or waffle mix is a good substitute. 
• Reduce the sweetness: Feel free to cut down the sugar to taste. Also, you can use honey instead. 
• Make it vegan: Use non-dairy alternatives such as almond milk or coconut milk. Also, go with egg substitutes such as flax egg.
• Gluten-free: Use a GF biscuit mix.
• Toppings: Experiment with toppings: aside from whipped cream, top with vanilla ice cream, chocolate shavings, or caramel sauce.

How long to cook the pudding in the slow cooker?

On low, it takes around four to six hours. You may check the pudding at the four-hour mark.

Also, it is important to remember: DO NOT COOK ON HIGH.

We need that slow cooking process to meld the flavors and achieve that velvety texture. I promise the long cook time is worth it!

How to make homemade pumpkin puree?

Say goodbye to canned puree! Try homemade puree once and you’ll never look back. Also, it’s healthier because you know exactly what’s in it, and you can adjust the levels of sugar and spice. In addition, it is much tastier than puree from a can.

The steps are:

1. Roast your pumpkins: First, halve them, remove the insides, then roast at 450F until tender and caramelized.
2. Process into puree: Chop the roasted flesh, then process until pureed.

Aside from pudding, use it for other dishes like pie, soups, muffins, cookies, and more.

How to keep dishes from getting soggy in the slow cooker?

Put a few sheets of kitchen roll or a clean tea towel between the top and lid of your crockpot. This will absorb excess moisture and prevent sogginess. 

What’s the difference between a slow cooker and a crockpot?

A slow cooker is a type of kitchen appliance. Crock-Pot may have become synonymous with this appliance over years, but it’s actually a brand name. You can buy slow cookers from other manufacturers like Cuisinart.

Storing instructions:

• Refrigerate: First, cool the dish completely before transferring to an airtight container. Also, this dessert will taste even better after refrigeration as the flavors will get together. Refrigerate up to five days.
• Freeze: Use a freezer-safe dish and freeze it up to three months.

Recipe Tips:

• Remember to cook this dish on LOW. 
• If making the puree from scratch, don’t use the big pumpkins for carving. You want the smaller ones meant for baking.
• Also, avoid the skin forming on top of the dessert by covering the surface directly with a plastic wrap. 
• Feel free to use other holiday spices such as allspice, peppermint, etc.
