Ingredients
1. For the filling
2. For serving (optional)
Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and grease
Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish with the melted butter so the dessert releases easily.
Whisk the mixture
In a bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, eggs, evaporated milk, and sugar until smooth. Stop once everything is well combined.
Pour and add walnuts
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Sprinkle most of the walnuts over the top; save a little for serving if you like.
Bake until set
Bake for about 45 minutes. The center can jiggle slightly, but the edges should look set; a toothpick should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Rest and serve
Let it cool for 10–15 minutes. Sprinkle with cinnamon if using, then slice and serve.
