Why make a Pecan Pumpkin Pie?
It ALL started with me making one of those funny graphics for my Facebook Page that asked “Which One Is Your Pie Or Die for Thanksgiving?”
A Facebook friend said she likes a Piecaken, pecan and pumpkin pie AND a cake all in one. Another friend said she likes to bake a 1/2 and 1/2 pie and eat JUST the section where the two pies met. I thought that was hilarious and also interesting. So I looked it up but what I discovered was that you can make a two-layer pie. And so it was done.
I took the OG Libby’s Recipe for their half-and-half pie and used the pumpkin portion for the bottom of the pie. And then I made my pecan pie recipe and poured it over the top. AMAZING!
