My mother used to make an apple pie with pecans in the pie. Not as a topping but in the pie. Sadly I can't find her recipe but a google search might turn up something if that sounds interesting to you. Make sure to use a good tart cooking apple or I don't think it will work.
Cracker Barrel makes a sweet potato casserole that you can only get on Thursdays with their turkey and dressing special that has pecans in it along with a hint of orange. It's the star of the meal. I haven't found a copycat of it yet but I'm still searching.
