Steps:
- Mix the graham cracker crumbs, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and the melted butter together in a bowl, and press the crust mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate, pressing the crumbs up the side of the plate. Chill until the crust is firm, about 30 minutes.
- Pour the water into a bowl, and sprinkle the gelatin over the water. Allow the gelatin to soften in the water for about 5 minutes. Combine the pumpkin, egg yolks, 1/2 cup of sugar, milk, salt, ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in a saucepan, and mix until smooth. Heat the mixture over medium-low heat until it almost reaches a simmer, and cook until thickened, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes; stir in the gelatin and water until the gelatin is dissolved. Remove the mixture from the heat.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they form soft peaks; gradually beat in 1/2 cup of sugar and the vanilla extract until the mixture is glossy. Lightly fold the egg whites into the pumpkin mixture, keeping as much air in the mixture as possible. Scoop the pumpkin mixture into the graham cracker crust. Chill several hours or overnight.

Steps:
- To make the crust, butter a nine-inch Pyrex pie plate. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Break the wafers into pieces. Place in processor and make fine crumbs, about one and one-third cups. Add the butter and pulse five to six times or until the crumbs are coated with butter.
- Empty the contents into the pie plate, reserving one tablespoon for garnish. Press the crumbs thickly onto the sides of the pan with a spoon, forming a half-inch border. Use a glass to press the remaining crumbs into the bottom of the dish.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The crust should set, but not brown. Cool and set aside.
- To make the filling, melt the butter in a heavy three-quart saucepan. Stir in the apples, sugars, spices and rind. Bring to a slow boil. Cover and simmer for five minutes. Remove the lid, raise heat slightly and continue to cook the apples for six to eight minutes or until the caramel syrup forms a six- to eight-inch thread when dropped from the tip of a spoon. Stir occasionally. Watch carefully: If the syrup becomes too hot, it will taste bitter and quickly burn.
- Immediately remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the pumpkin, gelatin and salt. Blend well and return to flame. Cook on low heat until the mixture is very hot, stirring constantly.
- Blend the yolks into the half-and-half. Gradually whisk into the filling. Heat slowly to just under boiling, about one-and-a-half to two minutes.
- Empty the filling into a processor. Puree for 45 seconds. Pour into a large bowl and place over ice for five minutes to cool to room temperature. Stir occasionally. The filling can also be cooled in the refrigerator.
- Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, to form a meringue. Beat 30 seconds longer.
- Stir a quarter of the egg whites into filling. Fold in the remaining whites and the toasted pecans at the same time, reserving one tablespoon of nuts for garnish. Mound the filling into the pie shell. Smooth surface with a spoon. Chill until set, about six hours or longer.
- To make the garnish, whip the cream in a chilled bowl. As it starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla. Beat until fairly thick. Pipe or spoon around the edge of the pie. Sprinkle the top with the reserved crumbs and nuts.

- In a bowl, add the pumpkin puree and whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, eggs and a pinch of salt.
- Remove the pie plate from the refrigerator and fill the bottom with the sauteed apple mixture. Pour the pumpkin filling over the top and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Bake until pumpkin is set, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes.

Steps:
- 1) The crust: Pulse the flour and salt together in food processor. Scatter frozen butter over the flour; pulse until the mixture is the size of large peas, (about 20 pulses). Add Sour Cream, and pulse until the dough forms a ball. Flatten the dough into a 4" disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and chill for 1 hour, or up to 2 days (or freeze up to 1 month).
- 2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Let dough rest on the counter for 10 minutes to soften slightly. On a lightly floured work surface, roll dough into a 12" circle. Transfer to a glass pie plate. Trim excess dough, leaving about 1/2" hanging over the edge. Tuck excess underneathe itself to form a neat edge. Press in a decorative border with your fingers.
- 3) Line Pie Shell with a double layer of foil; fill with pie weights or old beans. Bake 15 minutes. Remove weights and foil, and continue baking until the crust is golden and crisp. (About 5-10 minutes more) Place Pie Shell on cooling rack.
- 4) Combine all the ingredients for the 'SPICE MIXTURE' mentioned in ingredience.
- 5) Pumpkin Custard: Whisk heavy cream, eggs, brandy, and 1 tsp of 'spice mixture'. Add the pumpkin and sugars, whisking to combine. Pour Pumpkin Custard into warm pie crust. Bake until the edges are set and the center registers 175 degrees on instant thermometer -- about 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature (about 1 - 2 hours).
- 6) Pumpkin Chiffon: Combine the gelatin and 1/4 cup cold water in a small saucepan and let soak for 5 minutes (to firm up a bit).
- 7) In a saucepan at medium heat, whisk together the Pumpkin Puree, Brown Sugar, Egg Yolks, and 2 teaspoons of 'Spice Mixture'. Stirring constantly, bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and transfer into a bowl.
- 8) Heat the Gelatin in the saucepan over low heat until melted, 1 - 2 minutes. Stir the Gelatin into the chiffon until well combined. Chill covered until the mixture is just set (about 15 - 20 minutes) and the center jiggles slightly when shaken.
- 9) Using and electric mixer, whip the egg whites at medium-low speed until frothy (about 1 - 2 minutes). With the mixer still running, sprinkle in 2 tbls. Sugar, and increase the mixer speed to medium-high, whipping until stiff peaks form (about 1 -2 minutes).
- (If you are concerned about the use of raw egg whites, you can whisk the egg whites and sugar in the top of a double boiler until the egg whites reach 140 degrees - just be careful that you don't end up with scrambled eggs - before beating them to stiff peaks).
- 10) Whisk a quarter of the Meringue into the Chiffon mixture to lighten it. Gently place the remaining Meringue on top of the chiffon, while you whip the heavy cream and 3 Tbls. of sugar into stiff peaks.
- 11) Gently fold the remaining Meringue and 1/4 cup of the whipped cream into the chiffon until no white streaks remain. Spread the chiffon mixture over the Pumpkin Custard, mounding it slightly higher in the middle. Spread the whipped cream attractively over the top, sprinkle with additional spices if desired.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate untio needed.

Tips:
- For the perfect flaky crust, use ice-cold butter and work it into the flour quickly. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can make it tough.
- To prevent the pie from becoming soggy, pre-bake the crust before filling it. This will help to create a barrier between the crust and the filling.
- When making the filling, use fresh, ripe apples and pumpkin. This will give the pie the best flavor.
- Be sure to whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the filling, making it light and airy.
- Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to prevent the crust from over-browning.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin apple chiffon pie is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for fall gatherings. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and sweet-tart flavor, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give this pumpkin apple chiffon pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
