100% would make again

Basic pumpkin pie is good, but we think this dressed-up version is even better. Plenty of pecans add a nutty crunch to the pastry and the streusel topping. It's a perfect dessert for Thanksgiving or any time you want to end a dinner with something special. -Bertha Johnson, Indianapolis, Indiana

This is a good twist on plain pumpkin pie. My family really likes it and it has become our favorite fall pie. It is good with sweet potatoes, instead of pumpkin too.
