Apple Butter and Pumpkin Pie image

I'm proud of this pie because I made it up in my head, and it turned out very well! It's a little different from traditional pumpkin or pecan pie, which makes it a nice holiday surprise. -Sherry Little, Sherwood, Arkansas

I'm allergic to apples, so I substituted pears in the apple butter. It turned out great!

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
