Pumpkin pie squares are an excellent holiday dessert option for larger crowds.

Where a traditional pumpkin pie can serve about six people, this pumpkin slab is cut into at least twenty-four slices.

It’s up to you how you cut the servings of this pumpkin pie slab.

We make the best pumpkin squares every year, but the texture is more cake-like than this recipe.

Pumpkin Slab Pie Recipe for Bigger Parties

Our family is a big fan of pumpkin squares that my Aunt Linda makes every year.

Her recipe is more like a cake, though. With the cream cheese frosting, some people even think it tastes a little like carrot cake.

They are one of my all-time favorite desserts.

True pumpkin pie fans will most likely prefer this slab recipe.

I personally think the more pumpkin desserts, the better.

Break me off a little piece of all the treats, please.

If you host a large crowd for Thanksgiving or any holiday, this pie slab recipe is a good choice.

Since you can cut it into about 24 slices, it’s ideal for bigger parties.

Even though, we all love to take home leftovers, am I right?

  3. Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly over crust.

The pretty little dollop of whipped cream in the photos is just for show.

Trust me; my slice will have a lot more whipped cream than that.

If it’s homemade whipped cream, triple down on that. 😉

  1. We have a family Halloween party coming up and this would be a great thing to bring for the potluck portion, a bigger portion than a regular round pie.

  2. I love this idea, I used to absolutely love pumpkin pie and these pumpkin pie squares help keep me from eating SO MUCH 😀 I will have to make these.

  3. As long as that large gathering is me, myself, and I…I’m sold! I love all things pumpkin, and these sound delightful!

  5. Okay… so I want a slice of this right now. Please?
    Oh my goodness! It looks delicious. Pumpkin is my favorite and my weakness is pie!

  6. I made these for the church bake sale and they were such a hit!!!
    Cannot wait to make them again for the family.
