Homemade Pecan Pie with Maple Syrup

I shared new recipes for turkey and side dishes this month, now it’s time to talk PIE!!! Dessert is a must during the holidays. Pecan pie is a staple at our holiday meals. It is super easy to make and everyone in our family loves it. This year I am switching up the recipe a bit with this delicious Maple Pecan Pie. OMG! YUM!

I normally use corn syrup in my pecan pie. This year I am switching out the corn syrup for a ton of yummy maple syrup. It added SO much flavor! Make sure to use real maple syrup in this recipe. Don’t swap it out for the fake pancake syrup. It won’t be the same.

How to Make Maple Pecan Pie

This pie is super easy to make. It only takes a minute to whip up the filling. Whisk together sugar, maple syrup, eggs, melted butter, salt, and vanilla. Pour the filling into a pie shell and bake.

• I prefer to make this and any pecan pie the day before we eat it. I think the pie needs time to set up before eating. It will thicken as it cools. I store the pie in the refrigerator before serving. 
• Make sure to use pure Maple syrup and not pancake syrup.
• I used a frozen pie crust. There is no need to thaw the crust before baking.
• You can substitute a graham cracker crust for the pie crust if you prefer.
• Can Maple Pecan Pie be frozen? Yes! You can make the pie and freeze it for later. Let the baked pie cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze. You can also use a freezer bag. The pie will keep 3 months in the freezer.

Easy Holiday Dessert

We love to serve the pie slightly warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream and some caramel sauce.  We cut the pie and microwave it for a few seconds before serving. It is also great at room temperature. I can’t wait to dig into this pie again at Thanksgiving!
