Maple Pecan Pie with Coconut Sugar

Maple Pecan Pie is a beloved dessert in North America, especially around the holidays. Traditionally sweetened with corn syrup, this recipe offers a healthier twist by using coconut sugar and maple syrup. The result is a pie with deep, caramelized flavors and a subtle, earthy sweetness that perfectly complements the rich pecans.

Ingredients

For the crust:

– 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

– 1 tbsp coconut sugar

– ½ cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed

– 3–4 tbsp cold water

For the filling:

– 1 cup pecan halves

– ½ cup coconut sugar

– ¾ cup pure maple syrup

– 3 large eggs

– ¼ cup melted unsalted butter

– 1 tsp vanilla extract

– ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

– In a mixing bowl, combine flour and coconut sugar.

– Add the chilled butter and work it into the flour using a pastry cutter or your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.

– Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.

– Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

– Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Place it in the pan, trim the edges, and set aside.

2. Prepare the Filling:

– Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

– In a large bowl, whisk together coconut sugar, maple syrup, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

– Arrange the pecan halves in the pie crust, then pour the filling mixture over them, ensuring the pecans are evenly distributed.

3. Bake the Pie:

– Bake for 50–60 minutes or until the filling is set and slightly puffed. The center should still have a slight jiggle when gently shaken.

– Remove from the oven and let the pie cool completely before slicing.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

– Serve the pie warm or at room temperature, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Why Use Coconut Sugar?

Coconut sugar adds a unique depth of flavor with subtle caramel undertones, enhancing the richness of the maple syrup without making the pie overly sweet. It’s also a natural, less-processed alternative to refined sugars, making it a healthier choice.
