I like pumpkin pie, but I love this pumpkin trifle... Even if you don't like pumpkin pie, you should try pumpkin trifle, because it really is awesome.
I think it would be a great choice for Thanksgiving or Christmas if you wanted to serve something pumpkin, but didn't want to serve traditional pumpkin pie. Make it in a trifle bowl or in individual glass jars, either way makes a great presentation.
Homemade Pumpkin Trifle Recipe
- Pumpkin bars (bake in a 9x13 cake pan for a trifle bars or in muffin tins for sliding into glass jars)
- Pumpkin pudding (one batch makes 3 cups which is plenty for this recipe)
- Whipped cream (at least 1-2 cups whipped) or whipped topping
- Chopped walnuts or chocolate chips would be great additions as well if you wanted to add some crunch
- Layer prepared ingredients starting with pumpkin bars and ending with whipped cream or additions. Repeat layering until you reach the top of the container. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top if desired.
- Chill at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
I have GOT to start making some of these recipes!
