In the 11th leg, Littler came out firing as he produced a brilliant nine-darter to send the crowd into pandemonium.
The teenage sensation from Warrington then raced to an 8-5 lead to put himself three legs away from the trophy.
Eventually, Littler clinch the title by beating Humphries 11-7.
Reacting to Littler’s nine-darter, Glen Durrant said on Sky Sports: “That is one of the best things I've seen in a darting arena. What a moment. The atmosphere in the arena is off the scale.”
Wayne Mardle said: “Luke Littler has hit a nine-dart finish in the final of Premier League Darts – and he is looking at his watch to say ‘about time’.
“There is nothing this phenom can’t do.”
With the victory in the Premier League final, the 17-year-old has successfully avenged his defeat against Humphries at the PDC World Darts Championship earlier in the year at the Alexandra Palace, London.
Durrant added: “One of the greatest finals I have ever seen and what a Premier League.
“What a moment for Luke Littler, sharing that invaluable moment with his family, something they will remember for the rest of their lives.”
Apart from winning the trophy, Littler will also pocket a cool £275,000 in prize money.
Heading into the match against Michael Smith, Littler said: "I don't think about the money to be won. I know it's there, but I've got a semi-final to prepare for and then a final, hopefully."
