Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the apples by peeling, coring, and slicing them thinly. Toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Stir until well combined.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring the mixture is smooth. Slowly add the heavy cream and mix until fully incorporated.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the pie crust to prevent it from becoming soggy. Arrange the prepared apple slices in a single layer over the crust. If desired, dot small pieces of butter over the apples for added richness.
Pour the pumpkin mixture over the apples, spreading it evenly to cover the apple layer.
Place the pie on the center rack in the oven and bake for 55–60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Check the pie at the 40-minute mark; if the crust is browning too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 hours. This helps the filling set properly.
Serve slices at room temperature or slightly warmed. Optionally, top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious finish.
