Pecan pie is a decadent holiday classic and has always been one of my favorites. The dates add a wonderful sweetness that is not as heavy as refined sugar, but still just as scrumptious. Make sure your crust is nice and golden before taking it out of the oven. Enjoy!
Date Pecan Pie
250 grams pecans
1 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup date paste
3 eggs
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoons Himalayan pink salt
1 prepared pie crust
Preheat oven to 350°F
Mix together the maple syrup and date paste in mixer until blended. Add eggs coconut oil, vanilla extract and salt. Add pecans and pour into pie shell. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the filling has puffed up a bit and the crust is golden brown. Allow the pie to cool completely to set, then slice and enjoy.
Crust recipe:
2 1/2 cups almond flour
1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
1/4 cup coconut oil
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
To assemble Crust: Blend almond flour and salt in a bowl. Add coconut oil and maple syrup, stirring until dough is formed. Using parchment paper to prevent sticking, gently press dough into the bottom and sides of a pie plate.
Pecan pie is definitely a classic and yours is just so gorgeous! Sure to be a hit, yum!

Gorgeous photos and recipe.
This post would make a great addition to Our Growing Edge this month, a monthly link up for new food adventures. This month’s theme is HOLIDAY BAKING. More info here: http://bunnyeatsdesign.com/our-growing-edge/
The recipe is different to that on Kitchy Kitchen. Which should I use?
Hi Keshnee, this recipe will work perfectly. Sorry about the confusion. Happy Baking!!
Where can you get date paste from?
Hi Laurel,
I just want to say thanks for posting all of these awesome recipes! I, recently, discovered a few food intolerances (dairy to name one), and finding your website gave me some hope that I don’t have to eat bland foods! Thanks again and be well.
Thanks Lori!!!
Seriously love all of your recipes and recommend your cookbook to all my friends. 😘 Looking forward to making this at Thanksgiving, but wondering what I can sub the eggs for? Silly egg allergy. 🤦🏻♀️ Thanks!
Thank you for the kind words and support! You can sub the eggs with flax eggs. The pie will need to bake longer. You can find the info on how to sub flax eggs in our cookbook!! xoxo
