Easy Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie Recipe and Tip: Frozen to Yummy Struesel Topped

pumpkin pie with crumb topping

We wanted to share this quick Thanksgiving recipe tip and idea with you! We loved this idea and are planning to do this this year. We saw this in a recent issue of Woman’s Day magazine.

Basically, you can make a frozen pumpkin pie look delectable and homemade by adding an easy struesel topping on top.  You can even add drizzles of caramel sauce. It looks like it is a specialty homemade pie. And since we love struesel toppings, this is a perfect idea for us!

Even better is that you can find Sara Lee Pumpkin Pies (and probably other brands) really cheap right now and with the in-store sales and coupons you might be able to pick one up for $2.00 or less.  So not only does this become super easy to gourmet, but very easy on your budget too! SWEET!!

Here’s how to make this easy pie!

Here’s what you will need:

  • Frozen Pumpkin Pie
  • 1 Stick Butter
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • Caramel sauce to drizzle on top if you would like!

Here’s how to make:

  1. Cook pie to cooking directions ending at the lower end of the time (usually a 10 minute span like 60 – 70 minutes, cook for 60 minutes)
  2. Melt butter in a bowl
  3. Add the flour and brown sugar to the butter and mix until well blended and crumbly!
  4. Sprinkle crumb mixture on top until it covers well and nicely!
  5. Pop in the oven at the same temperature that the pie cooked on for 10-15 minutes or until the topping slightly browned.
  6. Drizzle on Caramel sauce while warm.
  7. Then serve. Yummy!
  8. Everyone will seriously think you made this from scratch!
