Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- ½ cup half-and-half
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1 (9 inch) prepared pie shell
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 3 tablespoons butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Beat the eggs, pumpkin, and half-and-half together in a mixing bowl until smooth. Stir in the sugar, flour, lemon zest, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice until evenly blended. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie shell. Cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil strips to prevent burning.
Step 3
Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Step 4
Meanwhile, prepare the pecan caramel topping by mixing the brown sugar, pecans, and butter together in a bowl until evenly blended. Carefully spoon over the top of the pie. Continue baking the pie until the topping is golden and bubbly, and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes more. Cool on a wire rack.
