- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon

- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the gluten-free gingersnap cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Add the eggs, heavy cream, and milk, and whisk until smooth.
- Pour the pumpkin custard mixture into the pre-baked gingersnap cookie crust.
- Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving to allow the custard to set.
- Slice and serve the gluten-free pumpkin custard pie with gingersnap cookie crumble topping. Enjoy!
