Easy Hot Maple Pecan Pie Recipe (without Corn Syrup)

This Maple Pecan Pie recipe is a delightful twist on the classic dessert, combining the rich, nutty flavors of pecans with the warm sweetness of maple syrup.

Ingredients
  

  • cups pecans chopped
  • 1 cup pure maple syrup
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 3 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon flour or cornstarch to thicken
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, and flour (or cornstarch) until smooth.
  • Stir in the chopped pecans until evenly coated.
  • Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 45–55 minutes, until the center is just set and slightly jiggles when moved. Add whole pecans for decoration while hot.
  • Cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing.
  • Try serving it warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, and of course drizzle that hot honey or hot maple syrup over the top then watch it disappear slice by slice.
