Spicy Pumpkin Tart

Prepare crust: Preheat oven to 400° F.

Combine flour, ground pecans, sugar and cinnamon in large bowl; add butter until well blended. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of 9” fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Prick crust with fork in a few places. Bake 10 minutes or until crust is slightly set.

Meanwhile, prepare filling: Combine pumpkin, eggs, brown sugar, half-and-half, cinnamon, TABASCO® Original Red Sauce, ginger and nutmeg in large bowl; mix well. Spoon into prepared crust.

Reduce oven temperature to 350° F. Bake 30 minutes longer or until mixture is set. Remove to wire rack to cool.

To serve, garnish tart with pecans and whipped cream, if desired.
