How To Make Air Fryer Pumpkin Pie With Graham Crust
Step One: Mix the pumpkin, sugar, and eggs. Then, add the evaporated milk, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and salt.
Step Two: Take your uncooked mini pie shell. Fill your pie shell with pumpkin pie filling. Place in the air fryer oven or the air fryer basket, set the air fryer temperature to 320 degrees F, set the air fryer setting, and set the cooking time to 8-10 minutes. The middle should be set when you finish cooking it. If not, add a few more minutes. Then let cool before serving (about 30 minutes)
Air Fryer Pumpkin Pie With Graham Crust Recipe Tips
- Use a Good Quality Pumpkin Puree: For the best flavor, use 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugar and spices.
- Chill the Graham Cracker Crust: If you’re using a store-bought graham cracker crust, chill it in the refrigerator before filling it to help it hold its shape better during cooking.
- Avoid Overmixing: When combining the filling ingredients, mix until just combined to prevent the filling from becoming too airy, which can affect the texture.
- Adjust Cooking Time: Cooking times may vary based on the size and brand of your air fryer.
- Let it Cool Before Serving: Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 minutes after cooking; this helps it set and makes slicing easier.
- Garnish for Presentation: Top your pie with whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving for an added touch.
- Store Leftovers Properly: Store any leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Experiment with Spices: Feel free to adjust the spices in the filling to suit your taste, adding more cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger for a personalized flavor.

Can I make this pie ahead of time? Absolutely! You can prepare the pie a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
What toppings pair well with pumpkin pie? Whipped cream, caramel sauce, or a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg make great toppings for pumpkin pie.
