After being spoiled by generations of fabulous homemade pie bakers, it occurred to me the other day that I could be classified as a pie snob...but really, after you've had fabulous homemade crust and luscious homemade pie fillings all your life, I like to think that we really just appreciate a REALLY GOOD piece of pie!
And if you're like me, you'll appreciate everything that goes into making this Classic Pecan Pie. Toasted pecans...to really bring full flavor to the nuts - because let's face it, isn't that what this pie is all about? Unless of course you're talking about the silky-smooth caramel filling that holds all of these delicious pecans together! This pie doesn't just LOOK crazy beautiful, it is pecan pie perfection...

Classic Pecan Pie – a family favorite for Thanksgiving for generations! My Mom was famous for her pecan pies with homemade crust. If you are a beginner baker, it is impossible to mess up this pecan pie filling! The touch of cinnamon adds a special little bit of flavor that you’ll love as well
Maple Pecan Pie is a wonderful variation of our favorite Classic Pecan Pie - a wonderful silky combination of sweet creamy filling and perfectly toasted pecans, in a buttery and flaky crust. Maple syrup makes a more custard-like pie. But note – make sure to use REAL dark amber maple syrup for this recipe – NOT pancake syrup!
For years I have searched for the perfect recipe for a smooth and silky filling – and this is the ONLY recipe to use! I toast the pecans to increase the flavor of the nuts. The filling needs to go into the pie crust as soon as it comes out of the oven, so plan your time! |
