Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch crust Premade pie crust
- 15 oz Pumpkin puree
- 12 oz Evaporated milk
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp Ground ginger
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter (cold)
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the premade pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, 3/4 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until smooth.
Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Bake the pie at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the pecan streusel topping. In a small bowl, mix together chopped pecans, flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and cold butter. Use a fork or your fingers to combine until crumbly.
After 30 minutes of baking, carefully remove the pie from the oven and evenly sprinkle the pecan streusel over the top.
Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the streusel is golden brown and the pie is set.
Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving. Optionally, serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
