How to Make Costco’s Pumpkin Pie Recipe
Is Costco’s pumpkin pie a staple in your Thanksgiving dinner routine?
Not only has Costco mastered the art of making me buy what I didn’t need in the first place, but they have also mastered the pumpkin pie which is nothing short of a Thanksgiving legend and has resulted in shopper aggression on more than one occasion.
There is something about Costco’s samples and their pumpkin pie that can take the gentlest of housewives and turn her into a lean, mean fighting machine.
What makes this 3.5 lb treat worth fighting for?
Well, it is creamy, smooth, melts in your mouth, and only costs $6.
Although I would still lay down those dollars for our Thanksgiving dinner when I am responsible to supply the pumpkin pie for nearly 30 people, but when I am making it at home I want to know their secret!
It’s deliciousness has ruined my ability to fully enjoy the lesser versions.
So what is the secret?
Heavy cream, for one thing. (I mean really what doesn’t taste better with more fat?)
And egg yolks for that richer texture.
When I did some research I found several blogs with copycat recipes, but Savor the Best had the most thorough explanation of what made Costco’s pumpkin pie stand out above the rest. With some slight process changes on my end, the original recipe needs to be credited to her.
I promise you will not regret giving this pumpkin pie recipe a try!

Love that you tweaked this with your own tricks for making a wonderful Costco style pumpkin pie! Thanks for sharing this on Tuesday Turn About, Ahna!
Costco really has mastered the pumpkin pie or at least the filling. They need a little improvement with the crust 🙂 It is so easy to buy those monster sized pies but sometimes you just gotta have the satisfaction of baking it yourself. Thanks for the credit
Yes!! You are so right. Thank you for the original post!
