Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450ðF (232ðC).
  2. In a small bowl, cream together 2 tablespoons softened butter and 1/3 cup brown sugar until combined.
  3. Stir in 1/3 cup chopped pecans until the mixture is well incorporated.
  4. Press the pecan-sugar mixture firmly into the bottom of two unbaked 8-inch pie shells or one 10-inch shell.
  5. Bake the crusts for 10 minutes, watching carefully to prevent puffing or slipping.
  6. If the crust puffs up, prick with a fork; if it slips down, pat back up with the back of a fork.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely before filling.
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 400ðF (204ðC).
  9. In a large skillet, melt remaining butter over medium heat and add pumpkin puree.
  10. Simmer the pumpkin mixture for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.
  11. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  12. Beat in the egg until smooth.
  13. Gradually stir the hot pumpkin mixture into the egg mixture, blending well.
  14. Stir in evaporated milk, regular milk, and water until fully combined.
  15. Pour the filling into the cooled pie shells.
  16. Bake for 1 hour, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  17. Allow pies to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
