Pecan and Walnut Pie

I get daily recipes from Real Simple in my email and this one came through a long time ago.

At work we had a potluck for one of the guys who was getting married. I asked him what he wanted me to make and he a.ok'd this pie!


All of the ingredients

Mixing everything together was super easy! 

I was worried about the crust, but it came out perfect!

How delicious does this look?!
I got compliments all day about it! It was delicious and I will definitely be making this again....even with all of the corn starch...Thanksgiving, here we come!
