Air Fryer Pumpkin Pie

Mini pumpkin pie recipe in air fryer are cute individual desserts for Thanksgiving, Christmas or any time of the year really. Use ready made with graham crackers or our Bisquick pie crust to make a family favorite treat this season.

These are such fun desserts. Made in tiny tins you make the homemade filling in a jiffy and pour it right in. A fun and easy air fryer recipe We make year after year.
We cannot go without all of the easy air fryer dessert recipes We make every single year. It is our all time favorite flavor and we are guilty of using it all year long, if we can find it. These are our latest creations. Of course we used to do the same thing in our oven but this is much quicker.
You can use whatever brand you have at home but we love this square basket because it holds a lot. We used the classic Libby's pumpkin pie recipe on the back of the can and went from there.

In the baking aisle we found these fun mini Keebler pie crusts too, we thought those would be solid. We're all about easy so…if you insist on homemade then go for it. We have used this can for not pies Libbys pumpkin muffins are great too so grab a few and go crazy.

Items you're going to need, or what we used in this case. Timing is appropriate for these small graham cracker crust shells you see here.
Homemade Pumpkin Pie Ingredients
You need to start with a regular sized can of pumpkin puree or make your own with a fresh gourd using our Instant Pot pumpkin puree instructions if you want to go all out.
We are going to use those Mini pie crusts made by Keebler that come in aluminum tins so that work is all done for you already.
Can you make crustless?
You could skip the crust entirely if you wanted a lower carb style like our Impossible Pumpkin Pie but you could need to buy some 4 oz ramekins to use instead or the pan you see at the bottom of this post. My husband preferred this Crustless Pumpkin Pie in Ramekins method and that was devoured that night as well.
Evaporated milk is a must, found canned not refrigerated at the store. White granulated Sugar is used to make sweet. You could use a sugar free alternative with a 1:1 ratio instead.
Your large Eggs should be added at room temperature ideally and whisked before integrated for the fluffiest texture.
As for the Fall seasonings you will want to add some cinnamon, ground ginger and ground cloves too. You can surely add some pumpkin pie spice if you'd like too.
Of course you'll need your air fryer oven. Any brand as we said above. Phillips, Nuwave oven, Foodi. etc. If you have a toaster oven / air fryer combo you could likely fit a regular size pan, it would take longer to cook.


First let's tackle a few questions you might have before you go any further starting with How to Tell if a Pumpkin Pie is Done? There are a few factors and if done right it won't get dried out and be solid for every bite.
How Long to Cook Mini Pumpkin Pies in Air Fryer
You will want to preheat the machine for 320 degrees to begin with, that takes 5 minutes. Close drawer and cook at 320 for 8 minutes until outer edges have firmed up. If you add more filling you might need to add 1-2 more minutes until set.
Remove carefully with tongs (or remove basket and leave out of machine with pies inside to cool). Allow to rest and continue to firm up and cool on cooling rack. Add another batch and continue until all are done. They should look similar to these to know they are set. The middle will look a bit more wet but that is okay as long as it isn't liquid.

We tried this again in an oven safe pan and it worked fabulous too. 350 degrees for about 45 minutes did the trick with the last few minutes uncovered. We took it out once the center was solidified.
Try this chocolate lava air fryer cake sometime as well. If you've never made air fryer cookies or air fryer apple dumplings you must!

Yep! The trickiest part of this is making sure it fits in your basket. Measure that beforehand and then go for it! Our pumpkin pie in air fryer work well in mini versions as you see here.For frozen pot pies follow the temperature on the box for the oven and check often as far as timing goes.
How do you check if pumpkin pie is done?Keep in mind that it will continue to firm when it cools. You do want to ensure that there isn't raw egg left though. Either insert a knife into the center, should be clean, or giggle it and center shouldn't move.
