Impossible Pumpkin Pie is an impossibly easy-to-make crustless pumpkin pie that forms its own crust while being baked. Try my Classic Pumpkin Pie if you are looking for a more traditional recipe.
Impossible Pumpkin Pie
This pie recipe is far from impossible; in fact, it’s one of the easiest pies you can make! There is no pie crust to make, and the ingredients are simply mixed together, poured into a pie plate, and baked. A delicate crust will form while baking, and the end result is a creamy, custardy pumpkin pie that is delicious on its own or topped with homemade whipped topping.
Impossible Pumpkin Pie Ingredients
Bisquick: Bisquick is a premade baking mix most commonly known to be used for pancakes and waffles. But, as in this recipe, it can be used in many more recipes! You can also purchase Gluten-Free Bisquick if you are trying to limit gluten.
Evaporated Milk: Evaporated milk is canned milk also known as unsweetened condensed milk. It does not contain added sugar like sweetened condensed milk. In a pinch, you could substitute half-and-half for the evaporated milk, but the taste of the pie will probably be richer (and we haven’t tested that substitute in the recipe).
Pumpkin Puree: Make sure you are using pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: Of course, this recipe needs some pumpkin pie spice. If you don’t have any on hand, it’s easy to make your own pumpkin spice!
Can I Use a Different Sized Pie Plate?
Yes! I used a deep, 8-inch pie plate for a thicker pie. You could also use a 9-inch or 10-inch pie plate. However, the pie will be thinner and you may have to adjust the baking time (checking the pie at about 45 minutes).
How to Store and Freeze Impossible Pie
Pumpkin pie should be refrigerated and if stored in an airtight container or covered well, should last 3-4 days.
To freeze:
- Let your pie cool completely.
- Tightly wrap with plastic wrap (so no whipped cream yet!) until it is well sealed. Then place in a freezer-safe sealable plastic bag or wrap it with aluminum.
- Label and date. It should last 2-3 months.
How to Thaw Frozen Pumpkin Pie
Remove the pie from the freezer and remove it from the plastic bag or aluminum foil. Place in the refrigerator to thaw overnight.

Awesome and very easy to make! My grandson loved it! We had it for breakfast!! Thank you!
I made the Impossible Pumpkin Pie to start it to try it out.. it came out perfect!!! Delicious and light without a thick crust for those of us who have to watch calories!!
The only things I did different was beat the mixture with a whisk by hand and used a 8×8” square glass pan. It still came out delicious with no lumps!!
This is a great simple easy to make pie without a thick crust!!!!!
What can I us instead of bisquick mix.
What does the bisquick do for the recipe?
This was very tasty, but I did miss the crust. When warm, it was more custard like but when cold, it was just like regular pumpkin pie. It was very tasty.
You are the BEST!
There are other ‘homemade’ baking mix (Bisquick) receipted…i’m sure without doing it they can be used. I use heart healthy Bisquick mix.
In recipe direction, it doesn’t say when to put in softened butter ?
Sorry, I just reviewed again and saw it-oops !
