Pour the banana filling over the prepared crust, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
Garnish the top of the pie with 1/2 cup of pecans, arranging them in a decorative pattern.
Place the pie in the freezer for 2-3 hours to set. Once set, transfer it to the refrigerator for 30 minutes to soften slightly before serving.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy this nutritious, raw take on pecan pie with fresh banana flavor!
