Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the unbaked pie crust in a pie dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Mix in pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and evaporated milk until smooth.
  3. Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared crust carefully.
  4. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt unsalted butter until golden brown. Remove from heat and mix in brown sugar, flour, sea salt, and chopped pecans to form clumps.
