A classic pecan pie with tender pecans, a flaky crust, and a rich, gooey brown sugar filling—perfect for the holidays! Made without corn syrup, this recipe uses honey and maple syrup for a natural sweetness.

Ingredients:

• 3 large eggs (132g)
• ½ cup dark brown sugar (110g), loosely packed
• ⅓ cup honey (113g)
• ⅓ cup pure maple syrup (107.33g)
• ¼ cup unsalted butter (56.75g), melted
• 2 tbsp bourbon whiskey (optional, 30g)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (4g)
• 1 tsp kosher salt (6g)
• 1 ½ cups pecan pieces (163.5g)
• ½ batch Perfect Pie Crust from Scratch (85g), prepared and chilled
• ⅓ cup pecan halves (43g), for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, melted butter, bourbon (if using), vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
3. Stir in the pecan pieces, then pour the filling into the prepared pie shell.
4. Garnish the top with pecan halves and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is set.
5. Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.
