Note

For best texture, ensure the milk is cold before mixing with the pudding to help it set properly.

Use 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which already contains sugar and spices.

This pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container.

For a vegan version, use plant-based milk and dairy-free whipped topping.

You can add a sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon on top of the whipped topping for extra flavor and presentation.
