No bake triple layer pumpkin spice pudding pie is a delicious twist to classic pumpkin pie. It's a creamy, no bake pie with three layers of pumpkin spice flavor and only 5 ingredients. Perfect for Thanksgiving dinner because it can be made the day before

Ever since posting this triple layer lemon pudding pie it’s quickly become on of the most popular recipes on the blog. I can see why too. It’s so simple, simple enough that anyone could make it, it’s light and creamy which makes for the perfect dessert because it’s not too heavy.

I couldn’t wait to create this pumpkin spice pudding version for Fall. And amazingly enough, just like all pumpkin goodies, this is better at least a day after making it. I made mine the night before and then we ate it the following evening. The flavor comes together and the entire pie gets nice and cold.

All you need are 5 ingredients; a prepared pie shell, 2 boxes of pumpkin spice pudding mix, milk, Cool Whip, and cinnamon. So easy, right?

I prefer to use half & half when I make pudding because it’s thicker. You can use whatever milk you want, but the higher the fat content the thicker and creamier the pudding will be.

The pumpkin spice instant pudding can be hard to find so when you do see it be sure and grab a few boxes so you have it. The flavor of the pumpkin in this pie is very subtle. So don’t be expecting it taste like pumpkin pie. It’s more of a pumpkin spice taste. Combine that with the creamy and smooth texture, and you have a fun twist to pumpkin pie that is so light tasting.

This recipe is very adaptable too. If you prefer fresh whipped cream (yum!) simply whip 1 1/2 cups heavy cream + 3 tablespoons powdered sugar. Use that instead of the tub of Cool Whip. 

If you prefer a homemade crust then feel free to make your own. I actually don’t mind the store-bought graham cracker crusts so I always use those. Plus, if you’re making this for Thanksgiving chances are you are also making another million dishes, so why not take shortcuts where you can 🙂 

I hope you enjoy this pie!

All are no bake, creamy, simple to make, and perfect for Thanksgiving dessert or anytime really.

No Bake Triple Layer Pumpkin Spice Pudding Pie

No Bake Triple Layer Pumpkin Spice Pudding Pie uses a premade graham cracker crust, pumpkin spice pudding, and Cool Whip to create an easy pumpkin pie recipe that requires no cooking!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ready-to-use graham cracker crust
  • 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) pumpkin spice instant pudding mix
  • 2 cups half and half milk
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 carton (8 oz) Cool Whip thawed
  • chopped pecans for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Combine dry pudding mix, half and half milk, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Beat together with a wire whisk, or hand held blender, until thick and creamy. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes so it can thicken. Spread 1 1/2 cups into the pie crust (this is the 1st layer).
  • To the remaining pudding mix, add 1 1/2 cups Cool Whip and stir until combined. Spread over the pudding layer in crust (for the 2nd layer).
  • Spread the remaining Cool Whip on top (for the 3rd layer) and cover with the enclosed lid (that came with the graham cracker crust).
  • Refrigerate for at least 8 hours so the pie can set up and thicken. You can also make it the day ahead and let it refrigerate overnight. Garnish with chopped pecans, if wanted, before serving.

Notes

Milk : It's best to use the half and half milk as the fat content is higher. 
Crust : Get the regular sized (6 oz) graham cracker crust NOT the 2 extra servings sized crust.

  1. Where can I buy Pumpkin Spice pudding?

    1. Together As Family says:

      It’s the Jello Instant pudding mix. I will clarify it in the recipe. I found it at two local grocery stores by me (Food Lion and Shop n’ Save). I can usually find it at Walmart but have not seen it at the one near me yet. Just look at your local grocery stores/Walmart near the other pudding mixes. It should be there. If not, you can always use any pudding flavor in it’s place.

      1. That pudding is almost impossible to find here… could you add pumpkin spice to vanilla pudding? How much would you recommend?

  2. This looks amazing, but where do you get pumpkin spice jello pudding mix?

    1. Together As Family says:

      I found it at a local grocery store nearby called Shop n’ Save. I have not seen it at Walmart yet. Hopefully you can find it somewhere. If not, I have made this pie using other pudding mixes as well. Like lemon pudding, chocolate pudding, etc.

    1. Together As Family says:

      I have never tried freezing it but I am guessing it would not freeze well. The whip cream and pudding would probably separate. Y
