Costco Pumpkin Pie Ingredients

Pie Crust

  • Butter – cold salted butter
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Sugar
  • Cold Water

Pumpkin Pie Filling

  • Pumpkin Puree – 22.5 ounce can (this is one and a 15 half ounce cans) I used Libbys Pure Pumpkin as Costco uses a puree the same kind as Libby uses
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • Heavy Cream
  • Evaporated Milk
  • Eggs
  • Brown Sugar
  • Granulated Sugar

Make sure to use a can of pumpkin puree not a can of pumpkin pie filling. My husband has made this mistake a couple of times at the grocery store!!

Substitutes & Variations: You can use cinnamon instead of the pumpkin pie spice. You can also use a store bought crust but you will need to use 2 crusts pieced together to fit into the 12 inch pan.
