Ingredients
15 ounces canned pumpkin purée (pure pumpkin)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, granulated sugar, eggs, evaporated milk, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt until smooth.
Pour the pumpkin mixture into a greased 10-inch cast iron skillet or a 9-inch square baking dish.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the pumpkin filling.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the custard firm up.
Notes
Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
