For a yummy crust, use gingersnaps- food process or blend them - add hot butter and bake liek you would a cookie crust. i always add spices and cinnamon to give an extra kick. Do the same with the pumpkin- add clove, all spice, and cinnamon to taste. I love a kicked up spicy pie.

Just wondering about pie crust. After you make it, it says to put in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Can I leave it longer, like a day or so? let me know. Thank you.

Hello from North Carolina. My people say they don't like pumpkin pie, but they LOVED this recipe. I added 1/4 tsp cinnamon and nutmeg to it to make it have more of a "sweet potato" taste. Also, this recipe will overrun a regular 9" pie crust due to all the pecans, so you can make two thin ones or use a deep dish crust and put the remainder in a small ramekin for a little custard.

Greeting from Mississippi!! The DH loved this recipe!!! He likes pumpkin and I like sweet potato. Did not have dark Karo on hand...used the light. Made two pies.......one using pumpkin and one using sweet potato...the sweet potato taste better. Pumpkin always taste "gourdy" to me...guess Iam a "root" person...LOL Also,used Jim Beam instead of the vanilla favoring. This recipe is a keeper!!! Bye,Ya'll!!

Delicious and so easy to make! This is my go-to fall dessert especially when I'm short on prep time.
