This delicious Maple Walnut Pie combines the rich sweetness of pure maple syrup and brown sugar with the crunch of toasted walnuts, all encased in a flaky, buttery pie crust. Perfect for autumn gatherings or a cozy dessert, this pie offers a delightful blend of flavors with a warm, golden-brown finish.

Ingredients

Pie Filling

  • 1 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts

Crust

  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking your pie evenly.
  2. Mix Filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the pure maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined to create the sweet custard base.
  3. Add Walnuts: Gently stir in the chopped walnuts, distributing them evenly throughout the filling for a nice crunchy texture.
  4. Prepare Pie: Pour the walnut and syrup mixture into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it out evenly to fill the crust without overflow.
  5. Bake Pie: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the filling is set (no longer jiggly) and the crust is a beautiful golden brown color.
  6. Cool: Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving, so the filling can fully set.

Notes

  • For added depth of flavor, consider toasting the walnuts lightly before adding them to the filling.
  • Check the crust edges during baking; if they brown too quickly, cover them with foil to prevent burning.
  • This pie tastes excellent served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • Make sure the pie cools completely to ensure clean slices and the best texture.
