Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 4 tablespoons Butter (melted)
- 1 unit Egg (for crust binding)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 units Eggs
- 0.75 cups Unsweetened maple-flavored syrup (sugar-free substitute)
- 0.5 cups Granulated erythritol (or any sugar-free granulated sweetener)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Pecans (halved or chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, egg, and salt. Mix thoroughly until the crust dough comes together.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use a fork to poke small holes in the bottom to prevent bubbling during baking.
Pre-bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple-flavored syrup, granulated erythritol, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Stir the pecans into the filling mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Pour the pecan filling into the pre-baked crust, spreading the pecans evenly across the top for a decorative finish, if desired.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. If the crust or pecans begin to brown too quickly, tent the pie loosely with aluminum foil.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your sugar-free pecan pie as a delectable, guilt-free dessert!
