Total Time:1 hour 15 minutes
Yield:8 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1/4 cup cold vegetable shortening, cut into cubes
4–6 tablespoons ice water
1 cup pecan halves
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
Cut in the cold butter and shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle.
Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the edges and crimp the crust decoratively.
Refrigerate the prepared pie crust for another 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
Stir in the pecan halves.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly wobbly in the center. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
Notes
Indulge in the rich and comforting flavors of a homemade Maple Pecan Pie. This classic dessert, elevated with the warm sweetness of maple syrup, is perfect for holidays, gatherings, or simply a cozy night in.
