FILLING

GARNISH

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare and partially bake the pie crust according to the directions. Toast the pecans in the preheated oven for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reserve 6-8 perfect pecan halves for garnishing the finished pie. Put the remaining pecans in the partially baked pie crust. In a medium bowl, combine the cinnamon, salt, vanilla and ½ cup of the maple syrup. Use a whisk to evenly distribute the cinnamon. Then whisk in the remaining ¼ cup of maple syrup and all of the fruit sweetener. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time. Pour this filling into the crust, over the pecans.

Bake the maple pecan pie for approximately 45 minutes on a cookie sheet on either the floor of a gas oven or the lowest shelf in an electric oven. Maple Pecan Pie is done when it is golden brown, has puffed slightly, and does not shake in the middle when jiggled. When the pie is cool, garnish it with whipped cream and toasted pecan halves.
