Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs about 12 crackers
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for serving

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Mix crumbs and melted butter; press 1 tbsp into each liner to form crusts.
  3. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add pumpkin, egg, vanilla, spice, and salt; mix until combined.
  4. Spoon filling over crusts, filling about 3/4 full. Tap pan to remove air bubbles.
  5. Bake 18–22 minutes until centers are set but slightly jiggly. Cool 15 minutes, then chill at least 1 hour.
  6. Top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon before serving.
