Jill, are steps 3 and 4 reversed?
Thank you for catching that =) I corrected it
Jill had a 5-10 minute bake of the crust after pressing #4 and a second bake after putting the ingredients for 35 minutes after #6 then cooling for 30 minutes.
This pie looks amazing. I have wonderful memories of pecan pie from my childhood as well, but it was so unhealthy. i am excited to try this healthier version. Thank you so much Jill! Glad you are back 🙂
Does it taste like peanut butter? I am thinking about trying this recipe but perhaps substitute with homemade pecan butter instead of peanut butter, think that could help or hurt?
I think it would work just great.
