• Melt the butter in a medium skillet set over medium heat, then toss in the Gala apples, McIntosh apples, 1/2 teaspoon of the nutmeg, the cinnamon, ginger, cloves and a pinch of salt. Cook until the apples begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• In a bowl, add the pumpkin puree and whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, eggs and a pinch of salt.

PUMPKIN APPLE TART

Steps:

• Place flour, salt, and butter in the food processor and pulse while adding water a little at a time.
• When dough starts to come together and is still a bit crumbly, transfer dough to a floured surface and pat together with floured hands. Dough may be crumbly but will come together when squeezed between your fingers.
• Divide dough in half and place one half into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
• Press dough into pan and up the sides with the tips of your fingers.
• Use the other half to make 6 to 8 4-inch tarts or another 9-inch tart. I lightly oiled my 4-inch tart pans becauce they did not have a removable bottom, to make removing them from the pan easier. Set dough aside while you slice and mix together the pumpkin mixture.
• Peel and thinly slice apples, place in a large bowl, sprinkle on the sugar and pumpkin pie spice, toss to coat.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, brown sugar, natural sugar, pumpkin pie spice, almond milk, vanilla until well combined. Add the arrowroot and whisk until well combined and there are no lumps.
• Arrange apples on the tarts and spread 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon pumpkin mixture over the small 4-inch tarts, use the remaining mixture over the large tart. If making two 9-inch tarts just divide the mixture between the two.
• Bake tarts on a parchment lined baking pan for 20 to 25 minutes. Pumpkin mixture may be slightly jiggly but will set as it cools.
• Serve tart with coconut cream.
• Have fun and enjoy!!!

APPLE-PUMPKIN-PECAN PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Position the oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Roll the pie dough out, if needed, into a 10-inch round on a lightly-floured surface (or between two pieces of floured parchment paper). If the dough gets too warm, refrigerate it to firm up. Ease the dough into the prepared pie pan. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges as desired. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread the pecans out on a baking sheet and bake until golden and toasted, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool and separate 1/3 cup; coarsely chop the 1/3 cup pecans for garnish and set aside.
• Put the pie pan on a baking sheet and line the chilled pie crust with foil or a large coffee filter and fill with pie weights. Bake until the edges are just barely golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove the foil with weights, then brush the bottom and edges of the dough all over with the egg white and continue baking until the bottom of the crust is also just barely golden, 8 to 10 minutes more. Transfer to a rack and cool completely. (Par-bake your pie shell up to 1 day in advance.)
• For the pecan pie filling: Scatter the remaining 1 cup pecans in the bottom of the cooled pie shell. Whisk the corn syrup, brown sugar, butter, egg and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Pour the egg mixture over the pecans. Bake until just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the pie to a rack until cool to the touch.
• For the apple pie filling: Meanwhile, peel, core and cut the apples into 1/4-inch slices. Toss with the granulated sugar and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, then add the apples and cook, gently stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft but still hold their shape, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cool completely. (Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet in a thin layer to help cool faster).
• Pile the cooled apple mixture up and around the edge of the cooled pie (directly on top of the pecan filling) leaving about an 8-inch well in the center of the pie.
• For the pumpkin pie filling: Whisk together the pumpkin, heavy cream, granulated sugar, egg and spice in a medium bowl. Pour the filling into the center of the pie (directly on top of the pecan filling) with the apples as a border.
• Bake the pie until the pumpkin center is set with just a slight jiggle, 50 minutes to 1 hour. If the crust gets too brown, cover with foil or a pie crust shield. Let the pie cool completely on a rack.
• Sprinkle the reserved 1/3 cup chopped pecans around the pie, snug up against the apple filling. Slice and serve with dollops of whipped cream.

APPLE BUTTER PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, apple butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir in eggs and evaporated milk. Pour into prepared pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted 2 inches from the center comes out clean. Sprinkle streusel topping over the pie, and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
• To make the streusel topping: In a small bowl, combine butter, flour, and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Stir until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in pecans.
