TWD: Twofer Thanksgiving Pie
Vibi from La Casserole Carrée is the hostess for this weeks Tuesdays with Dorie challenge. Even though Vibi is not American nor will she be celebrating Thanksgiving this week, she picked Dorie’s Twofer Thanksgiving Pie. Thank you!
We are in Montana celebrating with family this week and lucky for you all, the family loves to eat, so we (or I) decided to make the Twofer Pie for a little pre-Thanksgiving indulging.
The pie is two pies rolled into one: pumpkin and pecan. The recipe is pretty straightforward, make Dorie’s wonderful crust recipe, add a basic pumpkin pie filling and top it with a pecan filling. The pie smells wonderful cooking with the two different flavors blending. I did have to cook it more than the recipe called for, probably due to altitude and it did come out rather soft still; but, the flavors and texture were really nice. The end verdict – it was not my favorite Dorie recipe. I would probably make two separate pies, but it was fun to try.



Thank you so much for participating with me this week!
Your pie looks gorgeous, although you had trouble with baking it …perhaps like you say, because of altitude!
Nevertheless, a very, very happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Looks great!! Love it. That pie plate is beautiful too!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Your pie looks great! Sorry you didn’t love it but at least now you know to stick with either pumpkin or pecan pie, not the combination
Your pie looks great! I think I would go with two separate pies, too, since I love pecan but not pumpkin (I know, it’s un-American, isn’t it!)
