A cozy blend of pumpkin goodness, where a flaky crust embraces a velvety, spiced pumpkin filling, crowned by a delightful pecan praline topping for a sweet and savory crunch.
In a medium saucepan, cook pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and cloves over medium heat, stirring continuously. Cook for 4 minutes.
Remove mixture from heat and slowly stir in evaporated milk.
Next, add eggs and vanilla and mix until smooth.
Transfer filling into both graham cracker crusts.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the center barely wiggles when shaken.
While pie is baking, combine pecans, brown sugar, and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
Add corn syrup and vanilla. Stir until dry ingredients are coated.
Sprinkle praline topping over baked pie.
Evenly sprinkle sugar over top.
Bake for an additional 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
