Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs or 1 store-bought pie crust
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

For the Pumpkin Filling:

  • 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin purée
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream or evaporated milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat the Traeger

  • Set your Traeger to 325°F and let it preheat for 15 minutes with the lid closed.
  • Use mild wood pellets like apple, maple, or pecan for the best flavor.

2. Make the Crust

  • If using a graham cracker crust, mix crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
  • Press firmly into a 9-inch pie pan.
  • Pre-bake in the Traeger for 10 minutes, then let cool.

(Skip this step if using a store-bought crust.)

3. Prepare the Pumpkin Filling

  • In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, brown sugar, eggs, heavy cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt until smooth.

4. Assemble the Pie

  • Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top.

5. Smoke the Pie

  • Place the pie directly on the Traeger grill grates.
  • Smoke at 325°F for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is slightly set but still jiggles a bit.

6. Cool & Serve

 

  • Let the pie cool for at least 2 hours before slicing.
  • Serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon!

Notes

  • For extra smokiness, pre-smoke the pumpkin purée in a shallow dish at 180°F for 30 minutes before making the filling.
  • To prevent the crust from over-browning, cover the edges with foil if needed.

 

  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
