This Pumpkin Spice Slow Cooker Pudding is the perfect dessert to warm you up during the chilly months. Infused with the classic flavors of pumpkin pie, this pudding combines creamy pumpkin puree, warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, and a hint of vanilla for a rich, comforting treat.
It’s an easy dessert that you can set and forget, making it ideal for gatherings or cozy nights in. The slow cooker method allows the flavors to meld beautifully while creating a silky smooth texture that’s both indulgent and satisfying.
Serve it warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and you’ll have a decadent dessert that captures the essence of fall. This pudding not only tastes amazing but also fills your home with a delightful aroma that will have everyone asking for seconds.
Ingredients:
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Whipped cream (for serving, optional)
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, whole milk, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until well combined. This mixture will form the base of your pudding and guarantee a creamy texture.
- Add the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt to the mixture. Continue to whisk until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the pumpkin mixture into the slow cooker, spreading it evenly. Make sure to grease the bottom and sides of the slow cooker with non-stick spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for about 4 hours, or until the pudding has set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain the heat.
- Once done, turn off the slow cooker and let the pudding cool for a few minutes before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or chilled, depending on your preference.
Extra Tips:
For added richness, consider stirring in a few tablespoons of cream cheese into the pumpkin mixture before cooking. This will create an even creamier texture.
If you like a bit of crunch, you can sprinkle some toasted pecans or walnuts on top before serving.
Finally, this pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days, making it a great make-ahead dessert for your next gathering!
