"Originally from the King Aurhur's website, my cousin made this pie for Thanksgiving. It was so good he had to share the recipe with me. The pie brings a New England twist to the Southern Pecan Pie, using maple sugar instead of corn syrup, to sweeten the pie, giving it a distinctive New England flavor that you are sure to enjoy!"

Original is 10-12 servings

Step by Step Method

Roll the pastry into a 12" circle, and place it in a 9" pie plate.

Crimp the edges, and chill the crust while you're preparing the filling.

Step 8

FILLING: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, salt, maple syrup, melted butter and maple flavor.

Step 9

Stir in the nuts, and pour the filling into the prepared crust.

Step 10

Bake the pie on the bottom rack of the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, and bake for an additional 25-35 minutes, or until the center is set.
