Ingredients

  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 1 1/4 cup brown sugar light or dark, packed
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup agave syrup* I use Agave In The Raw, another option would be pure maple syrup

  • 2 cups pecans
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 9" deep dish pie crust homemade or store bought, partially blind baked

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Pour pecans and chocolate chips into prepared pie crust and spread out. Place pie plate with crust, chocolate chips and pecans onto a baking sheet and set aside.
  3. In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt your butter. Once butter is melted, add brown sugar and stir until mixture is well combined. Remove from heat. Add in your vanilla, salt and Agave In The Raw, stirring until well combined. In a separate large bowl, gently beat the eggs. Add mixture in the saucepan to the egg mixture, stir to combine the two mixtures. Pour mixture over pecans in pie crust.
  4. Place pie plate (on baking sheet) into oven and bake until the filling is set, approximately 50-60 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least one hour prior to serving. Store tightly covered.

Notes

  • Try serving slightly warm, topped with vanilla ice cream!
