Ingredients

Pumpkin Pie

1 pie crust store-bought or homemade
1 large egg
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/3 cup granulated white sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Pecan Pie

2 large eggs
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pecan halves

Instructions

Pumpkin Pie Layer

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the 1 pie crust onto a lightly floured surface and roll out into a 12-inch circle.
Once your circle is rolled out, fold the dough in half and pick it up and place it into a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. Unfold the dough and gently push the dough into the bottom and sides, working out all of the folds.
Trim the crust that hangs over the side of the pie plate so there’s only ½ inch of overhang.
Tuck the ½ inch of pie crust that hangs over the side of the pie plate underneath the crust and crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork.
In a medium bowl, add one large egg, canned pumpkin puree, 1/3 cup of granulated white sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk until well combined.
Spread the pumpkin mixture evenly with an angled spatula on the bottom of the pie crust.

Pecan Pie Layer

In a separate bowl, add 2 large eggs, light corn syrup, 1/2 cup granulated white sugar, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Add in the pecans and stir until evenly distributed.
Gently spoon the pecan mixture over the pumpkin layer in the pie crust.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake until the filling is set, about 50 minutes.
