Pecan pie is as traditional as pumpkin pie when it comes to dessert for Thanksgiving. It's decadent, sweet and nutty. This variation is tucked in an easy graham cracker crust that's thick and buttery.
White chocolate pecan pie has been my family's favorite for years, but this pecan pie with graham cracker crust is giving it a run for the money!

Please scroll to the printable recipe card at the end of this post for the full list of ingredients and baking directions.
Start by preparing the homemade crust. Of course, if you really want to save time you could use a pre-made store bought crust, but with only 5 minutes of prep time this from scratch crust really can't be beat. And this one is SO much better than a pre-made crust!
First crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

Add the graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar to a bowl and mix to combine. Then stir in the melted butter and vanilla. The mixture will be thick and sand like.
Next pour the mixture into a non-greased 9-inch pie dish and with medium pressure press the crumbs evenly over the bottom and up the sides of the dish. You don't want to pack the crumbs firmly or the crust will be too hard.
In a medium to large bowl, whisk together the room temperature eggs, brown sugar, all-purpose flour, half and half, vanilla and a pinch of kosher salt.
Pecan Pie Cheesecake
Place a pie shield over the crust and bake for 40-50 minutes or until the center only slightly jiggles when moved. Remove the pie from the oven and allow to cool at least one hour before serving.
Yes! The graham cracker crust is a perfect compliment to the gooey, brown sugar pecan filling. It is thick, buttery and it's quick and easy to make!
If you prefer a traditional pie crust I'd recommend either the crust from my frozen blueberry pie or my all butter pie crust.

*The eggs need to be room temperature or they will solidify the melted butter when you add it. To quickly bring eggs to room temperature, place them in a bowl of warm tap water for 5-10 minutes.
Cover and store any leftover pie at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

It happens every single year, but the holidays always have a way of sneaking up on me. We wait all year for the season, and it seems like it’s over before we even have time to blink.
This year, I’m attempting to be as organized as possible and have our family Thanksgiving meal planned and prepped fairly early. I’d love it if this was the year I didn’t have to make a last minute trip to the grocery store for all of the ingredients I managed to forget.
Last year it was cranberries (specifically for these Cranberry Orange Scones for Thanksgiving breakfast). The year before was sweet potatoes (for our favorite sweet potato biscuits ).
Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie Recipe
And honestly, this German Chocolate Pecan Pie was born out of forgetfulness. I didn’t have enough time to chill pie dough so I went for the graham cracker crust. And let me tell you, this was one mistake I am eternally grateful I made.
And the worst part of it is that prior to this, I’ve probably only had one bite of pecan pie in my entire life. Max.
I guess the idea of a whole pie of nuts was never something I wasnutsabout, but, let me tell you, this German Chocolate Pecan Pie has me singing a different tune. First of all, I didn’t actually realize pecan pie had this super gooey interior (aka filling) that, with the addition of the nuts, tastes like toffee and caramel rolled into one delicious bite. Second of all, I’ve grown to really like nuts (cue thesePumpkin Spice Candied Nuts ), so a whole pie of them doesn’t sound all the weird anymore.

Combine all of that goodness above with a graham cracker crust, chocolate, and coconut, and you’ve pretty much got a pie I can’t stop eating.
Graham Cracker Crust: Begin by making the graham cracker crust with a food processor. Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract in the food processor and mix until combined. Press the crust into the pie plate. Set aside.
Chocolate Coconut-Pecan Filling: Whisk dark brown sugar and unsalted melted butter together. Once combined, whisk in the eggs, heavy whipping cream, flour, and vanilla extract. Lastly, combine coconut and chopped pecans, and mix with the brown sugar mixture.

Assembly: Sprinkle chocolate chips in the bottom of the crust, and spoon the coconut-pecan filling over the top of the chocolate mixture. Sprinkle more chopped pecans on top.
Bake: Bake this pecan chocolate pie for about 50-55 minutes, and use a pie shield to prevent excessive browning on the graham cracker crust. The pie is done when the center of pie jiggles slightly.
Cool Pie: Allow to cool at least 1 hour before serving in order for the filling to thicken up. You can serve pecan pie warm or cold.

A pie shield is one of my favorite baking tools. It’s a circular metal disk that shields the crusts of your pies, keeping them from browning excessively.
However, if you do not have a pie shield, you can manufacture your own version with aluminum foil. Take a square of aluminum foil and cut out the center. Then place over your pie. If done correctly, the pie crust should be covered and the center exposed.
