Tips:

Use fresh pumpkin puree. Canned pumpkin puree can work in a pinch, but fresh pumpkin puree will give your pie a richer, more flavorful taste. To make your own pumpkin puree, simply roast a pumpkin until tender, then scoop out the flesh and puree it in a food processor or blender.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can make your pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Blind bake the pie crust. Blind baking the pie crust before adding the filling will help to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Use high-quality pecans. Pecans are a key ingredient in this pie, so it's important to use high-quality pecans. Look for pecans that are plump and have a rich, nutty flavor.
Don't overcook the pie. Pumpkin pie is best when it is slightly firm in the center. Overcooking the pie will make it dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin pecan pie is a classic fall dessert that is perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other special occasion. This recipe is easy to follow and produces a delicious, flavorful pie that will be enjoyed by everyone at your table.
