Ingredients
1 pre-made 9-inch deep-dish pie crust
1 1/2 cups pecans, roughly chopped
1 cup pure maple syrup
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and ensure your pie crust is securely placed in your pie dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
Fold in the chopped pecans using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until the center is set but has a slight jiggle.
Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing.
Notes
If the edges of your crust brown too quickly, shield them with aluminum foil halfway through baking. Store covered at room temperature for up to two days or refrigerated for up to five days. Serve with non-dairy whipped cream or vanilla bean ice cream.
