Ingredients
- 1 pie crust 9-inch, homemade or store-bought
- 3 cups pecans raw, coarsely chopped
- ¾ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 cup brown sugar dark
- 3 large eggs
- 5 Tbsp. butter melted and cooled
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- Whipped Cream optional, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉.
- Prepare Pie Crust: Place the prepared dough into a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie plate. Crimp the edges decoratively and refrigerate while preparing the filling. (If you're not using a store-bought crust, follow the directions to make this homemade pie crust.)
- Add Pecans and Filling: Add the pecans to the bottom of the pie crust in a single layer. Whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl and then pour it evenly over the nuts. Add a few additional pecans on top for decoration.
- Bake in Oven: Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the middle no longer jiggles. If the edges of the pie crust are beginning to brown, place a pie crust shield on top after 20-30 minutes. Additionally, if the top is browning too quickly, carefully place a piece of aluminum foil over the top to prevent it from burning.
- Cool and Serve: Place the baked pie on a wire rack to cool completely before serving. The filling will continue to set, so it is important that you do not cut into it too soon. Serve pie with a dollop of whipped cream and additional cinnamon. Enjoy!

Notes
- To Refrigerate: Store pecan pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days covered in plastic wrap. Before serving, remove the pie from the fridge and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
- To Freeze: Wrap the pie tightly in plastic wrap or wax paper, or individual slices, and then seal them in a freezer-safe container for up to 3-4 months.
