PECAN PUMPKIN PIE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare the pie crust by rolling it out and crimping the edge to form a highstanding rim.
- For the pecan filling, whisk the eggs in a bowl until foamy. Stir in the corn syrup or maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and pecans. Spread the pecan filling over the bottom of the pie crust. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the filling is set and slightly puffed.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs for the pumpkin filling and stir in the pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and vanilla until well blended.
- When the pecan filling has set, remove it from the oven. Pour the pumpkin filling over the pecan layer and bake for about 40 minutes, until the pumpkin layer is set in the middle.
- Decorate by pressing toasted pecan halves around the outside edge of the pie. Cool for at least 20 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own puree by roasting a pumpkin and then blending the flesh until smooth.
- If you don't have any pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and ground cloves.
- Be sure to pre-bake the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- Don't overfill the pie crust. The filling should come to about 1/2 inch below the rim of the crust.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the pie cooks evenly.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from becoming runny.
