What Can I Make With Canned Pumpkin Pie Filling?
Other than the obvious — make a pumpkin pie!
When I lived in Oregon, there was a place that made Pumpkin Pie Shakes. I wonder if they used the Pumpkin pie filling to make those? Any ideas? A pumpkin pie shake recipe would be wonderful!
I’ve also had pumpkin pie where they made it with cool whip and vanilla pudding instead of baking it in the oven.
Lay it on me. I’m craving some pumpkin pie filling. Help me or I’ll be eating it right out of the can!

I made a pumpkin loaf yesterday, like the kind they sell at Starbucks. So good with a latte!
Pumpkin muffins are good too. And, you can put a little in pancake batter for pumpkin pancakes!

I would never have thought of it, but I was at a craft show today and they used Pumpkin Pie filling to make Pumpkin Fudge - it was really, really tasty!

How about some pumpkin muffins. Add a can of pumpkin pie filling to one of your favorite plain muffin recipes and either cut back on the remaining wet ingredients, or increase the flour. Here’s a great pumpkin muffin recipe with whole wheat flour.

These Pumpking Cheesecake bars would be great for it too. Just add a little less of the spices when using pumpkin pie filling. Yummy!!!

We make pumpkin bread in our house. It’s just like banana bread, but with pumpkin instead.

Some brilliant recipes! I would love to try them right now. Usually my grandmother makes pumpkin pie for my family every Halloween but sadly she has passed away so it’s up to me now. I just wish our oven wasn’t needing a new frigidaire part at the moment otherwise I’d be trying these out now!
