Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s everything you’ll need to make these delicious treats:

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pie crust (or homemade if you prefer)
  • pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • brown sugar
  • egg
  • heavy cream or coconut cream (for dairy-free)
  • pumpkin pie spice (or ¼ tsp cinnamon, ⅛ tsp nutmeg, ⅛ tsp ginger)
  • vanilla extract
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Whipped cream or additional mini marshmallows for garnish (optional)

How to Make Marshmallow-Stuffed Pumpkin Pie Bites

Step 1: Prepare the Oven

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin.

Step 2: Cut and Shape the Dough

Roll out the pie crust to about ¼-inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter (about 2.5–3 inches) to cut circles from the dough. Gently press each circle into the mini muffin tin to form a small crust. Set aside any extra dough for later use.

Step 3: Make the Pumpkin Filling

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, egg, cream, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4: Assemble the Bites

Spoon a small amount of the pumpkin filling into each crust—about 3/4 of the way full. Then, place three mini marshmallows on top of each filled crust.

Step 5: Bake

Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. While the bites are still hot, VERY CAREFULLY place 3-4 marshmallows on top of each bite. Press down gently to push it into the pie. Let the bites cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 6: Optional Garnishes

Just before serving, top each bite with a dollop of whipped cream for extra flavor and presentation. This is optional and I prefer it without the whipped cream!

Tips for Making Perfect Pumpkin Pie Bites

  • Use Frozen Pie Crust that has been defrosted: Cold pie crust is easier to work with and holds its shape better in the oven.
  • Prevent Overstuffing: A little filling goes a long way! Too much can cause the bites to overflow in the oven. Place the pan on a sheet pan to catch any drips that might happen.
  • Customize the Flavor: Add extra cinnamon or a dash of nutmeg to the filling if you like a spicier pumpkin flavor.

Ways to Enjoy Marshmallow-Stuffed Pumpkin Pie Bites

These mini pumpkin pie bites are versatile and make a great addition to any fall celebration! Here are some fun ways to enjoy them:

  • Thanksgiving Dessert Platter: Serve alongside other mini treats for a Thanksgiving dessert platter that everyone will love.
  • Pumpkin Pie S’mores: These bites are delicious with a drizzle of chocolate or melted chocolate chips for a s’mores-inspired twist.
  • Warm and Toasty: For an extra treat, reheat a few in the oven until the marshmallow is gooey again, and enjoy with a hot drink.

How to Store Pumpkin Pie Bites

If you have leftovers (which might be rare!), you can store these bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. When you’re ready to enjoy them, pop them in the oven or microwave for a few seconds to make the marshmallow center gooey again.
