With Thanksgiving just days away, you probably have your menu set, but if not, or if you are planning on bringing Pumpkin Pie, then I strongly recommend you mix it up this year with either Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie or Pumpkin Praline Pie,  After all, no Thanksgiving is complete without comforting, creamy pumpkin pie  BUT no Thanksgiving is complete without nutty, brown sugar Pecan Pie.  Every year, everyone has a favorite pie, and every year, multiple pies are made to appease everyone’s loyalties.  But what if you could combine two favorites – would the pie become that much more delicious?  The answer is a resounding yes!  The answer is this Pumpkin Praline Pie.

The praline topping is the icing on an already delicious but one-note-creamy texture pie.  The sugary pecans add a much needed satisfying candied crunch that leaves you wanting more and more and more.  As every pie should.

How to Make Pumpkin Praline Pie

To make this Pumpkin Praline Pie structurally sound and not too sweet, we can’t just pop one pie on top of the other. A traditional pumpkin pie isn’t sturdy enough to support an additional topping so first we whisk pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon ginger, nutmeg, salt, and cloves together in a medium saucepan then cook for 4 minutes.  This additional 4 minute step is crucial as it evaporates extra liquid in the pumpkin for a thicker, sturdier, more concentrated pumpkin filling.

Next, we remove the filling from the heat and whisk in in evaporated milk followed by eggs and vanilla. Finally, we pour our filling into our pie crust and bake for 40-50 minutes. We want the pie to be cracked around the edges (will be covered by the topping), as the secret to the best pumpkin pie is a filling that is thoroughly set.

For the easy Praline Topping, we combine chopped pecans, brown sugar, vanilla and a small amount of corn syrup.  We sprinkle this Topping over the Pumpkin Pie and bake another 20 minutes, just long enough for the pecans to roast and the topping to clump as the buttery browns sugar and corn syrup melt and coat the pecans.

This super easy, simplified approach to the Praline adds a buttery, cinnamon brown sugar crunch without all the work of boiling pecans with corn syrup for a sticky topping that is too sweet when paired with Pumpkin Pie.  This Praline Topping, however, is perfection.

With one bite of this Pumpkin Praline Pie with its creamy rich pumpkin custard base and crunchy brown sugar butter pecan topping and the great Thanksgiving table pie divide will be united in Pumpkin Praline Pie love.  Happy Pie Day!
