Ingredients:
- heaping 1 cup chopped pecans
- 2 tbsp molasses, blackstrap or regular
- 3/4 cup pure maple syrup or agave
- 1/3 cup water
- 1-2 tbsp bourbon
- 2 tbsp nut butter of choice
- 1/4 cup flaxmeal
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- optional 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- optional pecans for garnish
Directions
- You can use any homemade or store-bought 9-inch pie crust.
- Whisk together all ingredients (except optional garnish), and let sit at least 30 minutes in the fridge, during which time it will thicken, thanks to the flaxmeal.
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Pour filling into a crust. Arrange the optional extra pecans over top if desired.
- Bake on the center rack 35 minutes, then do not open the oven door but let sit in the now-turned-off oven an additional 10 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
