I love pecan pie but I feel guilty every time. If I'm eating pie I'm more likely to go for apple or blueberry pie.

Why the guilt?
Pecan pie is very calorie dense and I don't have the self control
It's hard to eat a lot of though! It's so filling and soooo sweet.
Oh, it's not that hard.
Savoury: chicken pie. Locally known as "empadão":
Sweet: inverted apple pie aka tarte Tatin:
Pumpkin
Blueberry, and it's not even close
These days I'm more fond of savoury when it comes to pie, so I'd say a good, fresh pork pie with the jelly only just set.
However my NSFW answer is

Pumpkin here

Probably a good quiche, with apple a close second.
I made a pie this Thanksgiving that was based on the Whole Foods $60 holiday pie, that was cranberry compote on the bottom, brown butter almond frangipani in the middle, and topped with sliced apples in a glaze of apricot. This i would make again but with more cranberry, and I can wholeheartedly recommend apricot jam & a splash of apricot liqueur in apple pie, the apple layer was so delicious.
Blueberry!
homemade. fruit. with a lattice top. anything else goes
i'm a big rhubarb fan, i do an excellent rhubarb and canned peach pie, i never measure it but a can of drained sliced peaches, cut each slice in half longitudinal, so they're thinner, cut 2 stalks of rhubarb thin on a bit of a bias, sometimes i don't use it all, toss with a couple tablespoons of flour, pinch of cinnamon for flair, and my secret is using brown sugar instead of white, just a couple tablespoons, bake until the crust is cooked and it's fine with me if it's pillsbury, you will have to cover the edges w foil before the end, cool for an hour minimum, serve al la mode
Recently made a pumpkin pie, and the crust was made from scratch. I used the chefsteps recipe and it was so good. The sweet spice they use took it up a tiny notch, but sprinkling a tiny amount of kosher salt over it and the homemade whipped cream was really good. I’d never thought to do that before.
Gooseberry
Blackberry.
Shepherd's (savory) or Sweet Potato (sweet). Also a huge fan of strawberry rhubarb.
Steak and ale
Pizza
Pumpkin.
My wife makes a homemade pumpkin pie using a full lard crust and duck eggs in the custard that is to die for.
Cherry pie, followed closely by chocolate or coconut cream pie.
Lemon Meringue
Pecan pie followed by Key lime.
Most recently, a dauphinoise potato and caramelized onion pithivier.
Yep, I'm going to have to try this.
Cheesecake.
