2 Granny Smith or Fuji apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1 egg
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
3/4 cup evaporated milk
1 (9-inch) unbaked pie shell (in pie pan)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F.
In a medium saucepan, mix brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, water, butter and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until boiling.
Add apples, stirring so they become well-coated with the sugar mixture. Cook 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together egg, granulated sugar, pumpkin, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, allspice, cardamom and milk, making sure they are well combined.
Scoop apple mixture into pie crust, and then scoop the pumpkin mixture evenly over this to create a second layer. Bake for 10 minutes, then lower temperature to 375°F. Bake about 40 minutes more, until filling is set.
