How to Make Pecan And Date Pie Mexican

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out the dough and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  4. In a saucepan, combine the dates, water, brown sugar, cinnamon, and chili powder. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the dates are softened and the mixture has thickened slightly (about 10-15 minutes).
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the pecans and vanilla extract.
  6. Pour the date and pecan mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
