This indulgent Pecan Cheesecake Pie combines two favorite desserts—creamy cheesecake and gooey pecan pie—in one luscious dish. With a buttery crust and a rich pecan topping, it’s perfect for holidays or any special occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

Serves 8-10:

  • For the crust:
    • 1 (9-inch) pie crust, homemade or store-bought
  • For the cheesecake layer:
    • 8 oz (227 g) cream cheese, softened
    • 1/3 cup (65 g) granulated sugar
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the pecan topping:
    • 2/3 cup (130 g) brown sugar, packed
    • 1/3 cup (80 ml) light corn syrup
    • 1/4 cup (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 1/2 cups (150 g) pecan halves

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges if desired. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the cheesecake layer:
    • In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
    • Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
  3. Make the pecan topping:
    • In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Stir in the pecan halves.
  4. Assemble the pie:
    • Carefully pour the pecan topping over the cheesecake layer, spreading it evenly.
  5. Bake the pie:
    • Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
    • If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie crust shield halfway through baking.
  6. Cool and serve:
    • Let the pie cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the layers to set properly.

Notes

  • For added flavor, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the pecan topping before baking.
  • This pie can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
