Pumpkin Pecan Pie
Ingredients
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups solid pack pumpkin puree
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (9-inch) prepared pie crust
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup pecan halves
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to its highest temperature setting, which is 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
2
In a large mixing vessel, whisk together eggs, granulated sugars, flour, spices, and salt until well incorporated. Introduce pumpkin puree into the mixture and blend until smooth. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk, stirring continuously until everything is fully combined.
3
Pour the prepared pie mixture into a pre-baked pie crust, making sure to fill it evenly.
4
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the topping by combining 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon of grated orange zest, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and 3/4 cup of whole pecan halves in a separate bowl.
5
Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking the pie until the filling is set, which should take around 40 to 50 minutes longer than the initial baking time.
6
About 10 minutes before removing the pie from the oven, sprinkle the prepared pecan mixture evenly over the top of the pie.
