This recipe is amazing. Though it takes a while to bake it's so so worth it! The only tweek I made was doubling the nuts on the topping. Crunchy deliciousness bottom , creamy center and back to crunchy topping! Everyone that had it in the office are begging for the recipe.

This is a very delicious pumpkin recipe with a new twist, I made it last night for a small dinner party. It makes a lot of dessert because it will fill your whole pan almost to the top. The bottom is crunchy & oaty which pairs nicely with the creamy pumpkin pie filling. The top adds a caramelized candy like crunch with the nuts, a bit sweet, but its dessert. I added a full tablespoon of flour to the topping as some mentioned, it was perfect. I didn't have time to chill it in the fridge at the time, so I let it sit to cool on a rack until we were ready for it. At about room temperature, I scooped out portions. Pumpkin lovers enjoyed it & went back for seconds. Cant wait for tonite to try the chilled version with a bit of whipped cream after I spend the day decorating for Xmas. Keeper recipe.

So delicious! I halve the recipe to make an 8" square pan for our small family of 4. Super easy to make! Have been making since they first appeared back in the 1999 Holiday issue.

We love this pumpkin pie-like dessert! The only thing that needed tweaking - IF u do the topping, it needs a little flour to "bind" it into crumbs, otherwise, it just melts into a puddle on top! I added 2 tbsp. flour for half a recipe (made in an 8" pan which also worked out great). If making the full pan, then I'd suggest adding 1/4 cup flour to the topping.

if you love pumpkin pie then you'll love this. I made it as written. It makes a lot though so be prepared to serve either to a big crowd or be ready for leftovers, which are always good right?

Great recipe. I made this the first time for our church fellowship dinner. It was totally gone by the end of the dinner. I didn't make the topping but served with whipped cream.

I have been making this for quite some time. I double the crust and bake in 11x15 pan, and bake for about 20 min. I use the filling recipe, and it really fills the pan, but I like a thinner pie square with more crust. I then bake it for 45 min., and don't use the topping. This is really delicious. I also put 1/2 cup of pecans in the crust.
