- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Gluten-free vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat them lightly.
Gradually stir the beaten eggs into the sugar mixture until smooth.
Chop the walnuts and pecans coarsely.
Spread the chopped nuts evenly over the bottom of the prepared gluten-free pie crust.
Pour the sugar and egg mixture over the nuts in the pie crust.
Gently shake the pie to ensure the filling is evenly distributed.
Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
