TWD/BWD: Maple Walnut Pie

 


For the second November baking challenge, I prepared the Maple Walnut Pie from Baking with Dorie by Dorie Greenspan.

This is a delicious alternative to the traditional pecan pie, served around this time of year.  Except for the walnuts, this is nearly identical to my go-to pecan pie in which I also use maple syrup along with a bit of rum or bourbon.

The crust was prepared a day in advance, so it was well chilled.  The one-bowl filling is quickly mixed together, then poured into the par-baked crust.  While it can be served with whipped cream or ice cream on the side, I didn't want to wait for the extras, and it was good on its own.


 

Stop by the Tuesdays with Dorie website to see which dessert the other bakers chose this time.

  1. I cut out the ice cream as well. This is a quick tart to make. Yours looks like it's ready for Thanksgiving. Have a good one!

  2. Looks so good. We did have ice cream as we had minis with less filling but I can see how a full-sized slice doesn't need anything!
