Traditional pumpkin pie has a delicious twist-made with a crunchy pecan streusel topping and in the new-fashioned way with condensed milk .
Pecan Streusel Pumpkin Pie
By Sue Lau |Palatable Pastime
My recipe of the day with the Baking Bloggers group is for Pecan Streusel Pumpkin Pie. For November the group voted to do holiday pies and here it is.
Can you believe it is almost Thanksgiving already? Time flies when you are in the kitchen having fun!
I was going to do the base of this pie with the “new-fashioned” Libby’s recipe they have come out with, but that recipe crashed and burned as it has too much liquid in it. I mean, it will eventually bake out after around 90 minutes, but it does make pie baking difficult. Plus the texture wasn’t as good as what I have amended it with.
New-Fashioned Pie
So this is a modified Libby’s new-fashioned with a repair job done to it and it works swimmingly. I had actually thought it looked like too much liquid in the first one, but had trusted that they tested it out. Nope. How unfortunate for their brand as that older recipe is a very trusted one.
Streusel Topping
I have also put together a streusel as a topping- which is added gently after the pie bakes a little bit, to let the filling thicken ever so slightly (you don’t want your streusel sinking). Also when you add it, don’t do it in big handfuls, but sprinkle gently.
