Description
A classic maple pecan pie with a flaky crust and a rich, sweet filling. Perfect for holidays.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place the unbaked pie crust on a baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Arrange the pecan halves evenly in the bottom of the pie crust.
- Carefully pour the maple syrup mixture over the pecans.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. If the crust edges start to brown too quickly, you can cover them with foil.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use dark maple syrup.
- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- You can toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the pie for extra crunch.
