Intrepid Dezine

Fall is here. The days are getting shorter, the nights are getting colder and it’s the perfect time for a delicious fall comfort food.

Pecan pie is a decadent dessert on its own, but this buttery sweet dish - maple pecan pie, is made even richer drizzled with fragrant vanilla and sticky maple syrup for a tasty twist on this traditional pie.

Ingredients

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
2. In a mixing bowl, beat together maple syrup, sugar, eggs, melted butter and vanilla with an electric mixer until slightly thickened, about 2 or 3 minutes. Stir in chopped pecans and pour the mixture into the prepared pie shell. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until a knife poked into the center of the filling comes out clean.
3. Let cool completely or serve slightly warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

Servings: 6 to 8, or one 9-inch (23-cm) pie

Enjoy!
