Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree has a much better flavor than canned pumpkin puree. 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 will make the pie tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the pie in a water bath. Baking the pie in a water bath helps to prevent the pie from cracking and also helps to keep it moist.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the pie to set properly and the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious and creamy touch to the pie.

Upside-down pumpkin pecan pie is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other fall gathering.
