Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 homemade pie crust, prepared in a 9-inch pie pan
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup whipped cream
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your homemade pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. If your crust needs baking, bake it until golden and let it cool before adding the filling.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually add the maple syrup to the cream cheese, mixing until well combined and there are no lumps.
  4. Gently fold in the whipped cream with a spatula until fully blended and the mixture is light and fluffy.
  5. Pour the cream cheese mixture into the baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top of the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving, allowing the filling to set properly.

Notes

Allow the cream cheese to come to room temperature for a smooth filling. Use a rubber spatula to fold whipped cream gently to keep the filling light. For maximum crunch, toast pecans just before serving.
