How to Make Pumpkin Pie in Minecraft

Guide Java Bedrock

Quick answer: Craft pumpkin pie shapeless from a pumpkin, sugar and an egg - no furnace needed. Each pie restores 8 hunger and 4.8 saturation, and farmer villagers sell them for emeralds.

What you need

Step by step

  1. Get a pumpkin: grassy patches in most biomes, taiga villages, or grown from pumpkin seeds.
  2. Craft sugar from sugar cane (1 cane = 1 sugar) at any grid.
  3. Grab an egg from your chickens - they lay one every 5-10 minutes.
  4. Combine pumpkin + sugar + egg anywhere in the crafting grid: it is shapeless, no furnace or cooking required.
  5. Eat the pie for 8 hunger and 4.8 saturation - solid mid-tier food straight from a farm.
  6. Too lazy to farm? Apprentice-level farmer villagers sell pumpkin pies for emeralds.

Java vs Bedrock

Identical recipe and values in Java and Bedrock: shapeless pumpkin + sugar + egg, 8 hunger and 4.8 saturation, with farmers selling pies in both editions.

Versions: Pumpkin pie was added in Java 1.4.2 (12w37a, the Pretty Scary Update) after Jeb teased it on Twitter. Villager trading for pumpkin pies arrived in 1.8 (14w02a).

Frequently asked questions

Is pumpkin pie worth making?

As farm food, yes: all three ingredients are fully renewable and need no furnace fuel, so a pumpkin-chicken-sugarcane corner prints pies forever. Golden carrots still beat it on saturation.

Can you cook a pumpkin pie in a furnace?

No - pumpkin pie is crafted, not baked. The whole point is that it needs no fuel at all.

Does pumpkin pie stack?

Yes, to 64 - unlike mushroom stew or suspicious stew, which is one reason pies travel better than stews.
