Description

This easy cinnamon pie recipe features a creamy, cinnamon-spiced custard filling baked in a flaky pie crust. It’s a make-ahead dessert that tastes like a cinnamon roll meets cheesecake, perfect for holidays and fall gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed tightly
  • 3 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, room temperature
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and light brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Mix in the cinnamon, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Stir in the heavy whipping cream and all-purpose flour until just combined.
  6. Pour the cinnamon pie filling into the unbaked pie crust.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and puffed, and the center is slightly jiggly.
  8. Let the pie cool on a wire rack to room temperature.
  9. Cover the cooled pie and chill in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, or until completely set.
  10. Serve this delightful cinnamon pie chilled, optionally topped with whipped cream.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, you can blind-bake the pie crust before adding the filling.
  • If the crust edges brown too quickly during baking, tent them with foil or use a pie shield.
  • To achieve clean slices, dip a knife in hot water and wipe it dry before cutting.
  • Chill the pie completely before slicing to ensure it sets properly.
  • This cinnamon pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
