Pecan Pie

This has always been one of my favorite desserts and guesses what. I haven’t had it in almost 8 years since going vegan so I had so much fun playing around with this today 🍃

2. Add all the dry ingredients to your mixing bowl and mix.

4. If you are making 3 small-medium pan pecan pies then your will need to measure out 1/2 a cup of the dough for each pan. Save about 1/4 to 1/2 a cup of the pie crust and put aside for the filling.

6. Place in the oven to bake for 10 minutes while you do the filling.
