Ingredients
- 2 cans (15 oz.) pumpkin purée
- 1⁄3 cup plus 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, divided
- 1⁄2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 Tbsp. orange juice
- 1 Tbsp. grated orange zest
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1⁄2 cup milk
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1⁄2 cup butter, softened
Directions
- Set oven to 375°F. Grease a medium baking dish with non-stick coking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, 1⁄3 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, orange juice, orange zest, eggs, and milk. Pour the pumpkin filling into the baking dish.
- In a small bowl, toss together pecans, remaining 1⁄2 cup brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix in the butter with your fingers, until you have a crumbly mixture. Sprinkle the pecan mixture over the pumpkin filling.
- Place the baking dish on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top of the pecans are toasted and the pumpkin filling is set. A knife inserted into the middle of the crisp should come out clean.
