Instructions

STEP 1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan with cooking spray.
STEP 2 To prepare crust: Combine gingersnaps and raisins in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add oil and pulse until blended. Press evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan.
STEP 3 Bake the crust until set, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
STEP 4 To prepare filling: Combine pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg in a large bowl and mix well. Add ice cream and stir until blended. Spoon the mixture into the cooled pie crust. Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours. Let the pie soften slightly in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
