Looking for that perfect pumpkin pie to spice up your fall and holiday season? You know – easy to make, zero calories, etc.? Well, you found it! This recipe……err, crochet pattern….is fast, fun and easy! This cute little amigurumi pumpkin pie is sure to be a hit as a gift or as part of your fall and winter decor!

This pattern is the perfect blend of realistic-looking with a dash of cuteness all at the same time! The stuffed pie has a very similar look to actual pumpkin pie, in both size and color. But the addition of the cute, sparkly eyes, tiny smile, and bashful blush make it all the more fun and unique!

(Pin it for later!)

What makes this little pie so authentic looking is hands down the yarn that I chose for the pattern. Finding a true pumpkin pie color is tough – it’s not like crocheting a pumpkin, where you can get away with lots of different shades of orange. No, it has to be that exact orange/brown/amber color! Fortunately, I found the perfect yarn! It’s Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Honey (find it on Amazon HERE)! It’s just perfect, and also a really pretty fall color in general – so it couldn’t hurt to have what’s left over from your skein for your yarn stash!

There are so any possibilities as to what you could use this for. It would be super cute to set out at your Thanksgiving celebration or holiday parties, since pumpkin pie is a hallmark of fall and winter gatherings. It would also be great as a play food toy for the little one in your life! Or how about a gift for someone in your life who just plain loves pumpkin pie?! What a sweet surprise it would be as a gift!
