Libby's Pumpkin Pecan Pie ~ Recipe

-----pumpkin layer----- 1 Egg; lightly beaten

1 c Libby's solid pack pumpkin

1/3 c Granulated sugar

1 ts Pumpkin pie spice

1 Unbaked 9-inch pie shell

-----pecan layer----- 2/3 c Light corn syrup

2 Eggs; lightly beaten

1/2 c Granulated sugar

3 tb Butter or margarine; melted

1/2 ts Vanilla extract

1 c Pecan halves

Combine egg, pumpkin, sugar and pie spice in medium bowl. Spread over bottom of pie shell. Combine corn syrup, eggs, sugar, butter and vanilla in the same bowl; stir in pecans. Spoon over pumpkin layer. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 50 minutes or until filling is set. Cool on wire rack. Note: This pie looks like a pecan pie, but is not so sweet. I think the flavors and textures tend to compete (pecan vs pumpkin). If a full cup of sugar were to be used in the pumpkin layer, the result might be improved. -----
