I made this lastyear for a church picnic and got 2nd place in the pie contest. AND this guy tasted my pie and offered to pay me to make him some for Thanksgiving. And of course I took up the offer. LOL. Make this, its so much better than the average pumpkin pie. You won't be sorry. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans |
1 teaspoon salt |
2/3 cup crisco shortening, plus |
1 tablespoon crisco shortening |
4 -5 tablespoons water |
1 (30 ounce) can pumpkin pie filling |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup chopped pecans |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
3 tablespoons cold butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine flour, pecans and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. 2. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until a ball forms. 3. Divide dough in half. 4. Roll out each portion to fit a 9 inch pie plate; place pastry in pie plates. 5. Flute edges and set aside. 6. Combine pie mix, milk and egg; pour into pastry shells. 7. For topping, combine sugar, flour, pecans and cinnamon in a small bowl; cut in butter until crumbly. 8. Sprinkle over filling. 9. Cover edges loosely with foil. 10. Bake at 375 for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. 11. Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours. 12. Refrigerate until serving. |
