Cover, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Stir in 1 T brown sugar, 1/4 t cinnamon, and nutmeg; cook, uncovered, 3 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Remove from pan. Cover and chill for 2 hours.
4. Place frozen yogurt in a chilled bowl. Stir in 1 t cinnamon and 3/4 cup apple mixture. Cover and chill for 30 minutes. Spread half of yogurt mixture into frozen crust (keep remaining yogurt in the freezer). Top the yogurt mixture with the remaining apple mixture. Drizzle with 1/4 c caramel topping. Cover and freeze 1 hour. Carefully spread reserved yogurt mixture over caramel. Top with graham cracker crumbs and pecans. Drizzle with 2 T caramel topping.
