Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 2 Packages Sweet Loren's Cookie Dough (pumpkin spice or gingerbread) - See notes for additional other options
  • 4 Tbsp Melted Butter

Filling

  • 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 2/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp all cloves
  • 2 Eggs

Whipped Cream

  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tsp Powdered Sugar
  • Splash Vanilla Extract

Instructions
 

Crust

  • Follow package instructions on cookie dough for baking temperature. Bake for maximum bake time per package instructions. You want them to be one the crispier side, so they crumble well, so you can bake them for an additional 2-3 minutes if they're still soft at the full baking time. Allow to cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Add cookies to a food processor and pulse into a fine crumb. Add melted butter and pulse a few times until incorporated.
  • Press firmly into the pie pan. You can use a glass or bottom of a measuring cup to help press it into place.
  • Bake 7 minutes and allow to cool fully before filling.

Pie

  • Mix sugars, cinnamon, salt, ginger and cloves in small bowl. Beat eggs in large bowl. Stir in pumpkin and sugar-spice mixture. Gradually stir in evaporated milk.
  • Pour into Pie Shell
  • Bake in preheated 425° F oven for 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350° F; bake for 40 minutes or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. To keep crust from burning, make a ring around the outside crust with tin foil to keep it from burning
  • Cool on wire rack for 2 hours, then refrigerate for at least an hour.

Whipped Cream

  • Combine all ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on high for 3-5 minutes or until medium stiff peaks form. Top pie with whipped cream.

Notes

Any dry, crumbly gluten-free cookie can potentially be used as an alternative. You just don't want to use anything with chocolate, or other add-ins.
