Ingredients
  

For the Pumpkin Layer
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup evaporated milk
For the Pecan Layer
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Crust
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Equipment

  • 9-inch Pie Dish
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Baking Sheet
  • Cooling Rack
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Sharp knife

Method
 

  1. Make the Pumpkin Filling: Mix pumpkin puree, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, egg, and evaporated milk in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Pour Pumpkin Base: Pour the pumpkin mix into your pie crust. Spread it evenly with a spatula.
  3. Mix the Pecan Topping: In another bowl, whisk corn syrup, brown sugar, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir in the chopped pecans.
  4. Add Pecan Layer: Gently spoon the pecan mixture over the pumpkin layer. Do this slowly so the layers stay separate.
  5. Bake the Pie: Place the pie on a baking sheet. Bake for 50–55 minutes. Cover the edges with foil if the crust browns too fast.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool on a rack for at least 2 hours. This helps both layers set well.
