FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
No, you will only want to use pumpkin puree for this recipe. Pumpkin pie filling will be too runny and will not work.
No, if you do not like the flavor of pumpkin you can omit the maple syrup, pumpkin spice, puree and cinnamon. If you do this, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to each layer along with keeping the orange food coloring to keep the look of this recipe.
This uses a 9-inch pie plate. You can use regular or deep dish. I own a deep dish pie pan so that’s what I used here.
No, but this is super tasty on this recipe and really gives it that “pie” effect. But if you are not a fan, you can just serve these without it or squirt on some plain whipped cream.
These can be stored in an airtight container where they will keep at room temperature for up to 2 days. These can also be frozen. Wrap the Rice Krispies Treats in plastic wrap and place in a freezer safe container or bag where they will keep for up to 6 months. To defrost, remove to the countertop until thawed.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- salted butter
- mini marshmallows
- maple syrup
- Rice Krispies
- pumpkin pie spice
- pumpkin puree
- cinnamon
- orange food coloring
- cinnamon whipped cream, optional

HOW TO MAKE PUMPKIN PIE RICE KRISPIES TREATS:
Make the Rice Krispie “pie crust” first by melting the butter over low heat in a medium saucepan. Then whisk in the maple syrup until combined.

Add the mini marshmallows and stir constantly until melted.

Add in the Rice Krispie cereal and carefully fold in until completely coated.

Scrape this mixture into the outside rim of a pie dish (sprayed with non-stick cooking spray) and form a “crust” by pressing the Rice Krispie mixture into it. Set this aside to cool down a bit while you make the filling.

To make the pie filling, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, whisk in the pumpkin pie spice, pumpkin puree and cinnamon.

Once combined, add the mini marshmallows and stir until melted.

Add the orange food coloring until you reach the desired color, gently fold in the rice krispies until completely coated.

Evenly pour the filling mixture into the center of the pie dish and press firmly into the crust to meld the two Rice Krispie layers together.

Let the rice krispie pie fully cool before slicing and serving. You can even pop it into the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before cutting.

Optional: Top each slice with a dollop of cinnamon whipped cream and enjoy!
