Libby's Pumpkin Pecan Pie ~

Ingredients

1 egg
1 c libbys pack pumpkin
7/8 c granulated sugar
1 ts pumpkin pie spice
1 unbaked
9 pie shell
5/8 c corn syrup
2 eggs
3 tb butter
1/2 ts vanilla extract
1 pecan

Instructions

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. ----
