How to Make Not Too Sweet Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
  3. Stir in the pecans until evenly coated.
  4. Pour the filling into your prepared pie crust.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs.
