Can I make a pie recipe in a 9x13 pan?

I have a recipe for a creamy pumpkin pie that just goes in a pre made graham cracker crust. I want to have it larger, and not in pie form and it just gets all messy and stuff. I was thinking of doubling the recipe and just putting in a graham cracker crust myself in a 9x13 pan. I'd then cut it into bars instead of pie slices. Do you think this will work okay?

Update:

Note: This isn't a baked pie (although if I made the crust myself, I would bake that to set it. This is just pumpkin mixed with vanilla pudding mix topped with whipped topping. Super easy! Just not the shape that I want it.

    I have been baking for many years and your idea will work out fine ...simply use a butter knife and insert it in a couple of different places to check for doneness If the knike comes out clean .your filling is cooked! also spray your baking pan bottom and sides before hand with cooking spray for ease in lifting out nicely cut bars!

    A few things to consider... When you double the recipe that can impact dramatically how long you bake something for. Also now that you have changed pans How deep will the pie be as compared to if you had just made it in the original pie pan?

    The thicker/deeper it is the more time it will need to cook/set. Vice versa if its actually more shallow now then the pie will cook faster so keep your eye on the time and adjust. I'd check the pie a good 10-12 minutes BEFORE its recommended cooking time and judge it from that point. and check back every 5-8 minutes after to prevent it form overcooking/burning.

    If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aUA09

    The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true
