Ingredients

• 1 9-inch crust Unbaked pie crust
• 0.5 cups Pecans
• 0.5 cups Packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 1.5 cups Canned pumpkin puree
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.125 teaspoons Ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 1 cups Evaporated milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0 as needed (optional) Whipped cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Roll out the unbaked pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and flute the edges, then set it aside.

Step 3

Prepare the praline layer: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped pecans, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Add the eggs to the pumpkin mixture one at a time, beating lightly after each addition.

Step 6

Gradually stir in the evaporated milk and vanilla extract until the filling is smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Carefully pour the pumpkin filling over the praline layer in the pie crust.

Step 8

Place the pie on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 60-65 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack, which will take about 2 hours.

Step 10

Once cooled, optionally serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped pecans for garnish.
