How to make the crustless pie filling

  3. Create the water bath following the tips below.
  4. Bake the pumpkin pie ramekins for 35 minutes at 350 degrees F.

Tips for baking the crustless pumpkin pies in a water bath

  • Using a bath helps temper the heat of the oven and adds moisture preventing cracking and a rubbery pie surface.
  • Using a lower heat along with boiling water allows for a more even baking time.
  • Make sure to use boiling water so your mini pumpkin pies cook faster.
  • Use a paper towel in the pan to keep the ramekins from sliding around.
  • Add the boiling water to the pan after you place it in the oven.
  • Remove one of the ramekins from the dish to make it easier to add the boiling water.
