Steps:
- PUMPKIN PIE FILLING: Make pumpkin pie filling FIRST and cool in refrigerator or freezer. (because of the natural oils from the walnuts the pie filling MUST be baked separately and combined at the end. If you baked them together you may end up with an oily pie) It's really is worth the effort.

- Cool COMPLETELY (either in fridge or freezer)
- WALNUT PIE CRUMB CRUST: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In food processor, combine all crust ingredients and process until well blended.
