Pecan Pie - Crust
In a bowl add flour, salt and cinnamon powder. Whisk until combined. Add COLD butter (cut in small cubes). Rub the butter with the dry ingredients until crumbly.
Add water and knead until a dough forms.
*Add more water if needed.
Place dough in a zip lock bag. Flatten the dough and roll it out into a square. Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour.
Sprinkle dough with a generous amount of flour. Start rolling out the dough. Roll it out +/- 2 mm thickness. Use a rolling pin to transfer the dough to a pie dish.
Cut of the leftover dough, leaving 3 -4 cm over the edge. Fold the leftover dough underneath to create a thicker edge.
To add some pattern to the crust, you can press the edge with a fork. Poke holes on the bottom of the crust with a fork.
*Refrigerate while making the filling.
Pecan Pie - Filling
To make the filling combine, maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, salt and cinnamon. Whisk until combined. Lastly whisk in the melted butter.
Fill the pie with desired amount of pecans. I used 2 cups. Spread out the pecans and pour the liquid over it
Bake the pie at 350F for 50 - 60 minutes. When ready let it cool down completely before serving or until slightly warm. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream!
Happy Holidays! ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿
