Recipe - Maple Syrup Pecan Pie

1 Flaky pasty crust (single)
3 Eggs
1 cup Light brown sugar; packed
1 cup Maple syrup; pure
4 tablespoon Butter, unsalted; melted
One fourth teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
2 cup Pecans; coarsely chopped

Lightly grease a teninch pie pan and put the pie crust in.

Set the oven at 400 degrees to preheat. Position a rack to the middle.

In a bowl, beat the eggs until they are combined. Add the sugar and mix
well. Stir in the maple syrup, butter, salt, vanilla, and pecans. Pour
the filling into the pie crust and tranfer to the oven.

Bake the pie for 10 minutes. Reduce the temparature to 350 and bake for an
additional 3035 minutes or until the filling is set. Give the pie a
gentle shake; the center should remain firm. Let the pie sit at room
temperature to cool completely.

aluminum foil. Gently press the foil against the pie. Freeze for up to
two months. Defrost the wrapped pie at room temperature. Uncover the pie
and warm in a 300degree oven for ten minutes before serving.
