Best 2 Maple Syrup Pecan Pie Recipes

PECAN PIE WITH MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a rack in the lowest position.
• Combine eggs, maple syrup, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Blend well. Stir in pecans. Pour batter into the pie shell.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shell is golden brown and filling is set, 35 to 40 minutes.

MAPLE SYRUP PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Maple syrup: Preferred grades are C, B, and A, in that order.
• Lightly grease a ten-inch pie pan and put the pie crust in it.
• Set the oven at 400°F to preheat.
• Position a rack to the middle.
• In a bowl, beat the eggs until they are combined.
• Add the sugar and mix well.
• Stir in the maple syrup, butter, salt, vanilla, and pecans.
• I'll frequently microwave the filling at this point just until it's warm, especially because my maple syrup and eggs are almost always refrigerator-cold. Stir frequently and don't overheat or the filling will start to set. Warming will allow the filling to set in the oven before the crust gets overcooked.
• Pour the filling into the pie crust and transfer to the oven.
• Bake the pie for 10 minutes.
• Reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes or until the filling is set.
• Give the pie a gentle shake; the center should remain firm (note that another 'zaar member had a problem with the pie being runny - you must bake until the center remains firm when the pie is shaken even if it takes more than 35 minutes).
• Let the pie sit at room temperature to cool completely.
• To make in advance, wrap the cooled pie in plastic wrap, then in heavy-duty aluminum foil (I've never actually done this).
• Gently press the foil against the pie.
• Freeze for up to two months.
• Defrost the wrapped pie at room temperature.
• Uncover the pie and warm in a 300°F oven for ten minutes before serving.
