Convection Bake Chocolate Pecan Pie

This recipe for pecan pie strikes the perfect balance of great flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. Instead of using corn syrup the recipe calls for a more natural sweetener. Good choices are agave syrup, maple syrup, brown rice syrup or honey. I included a few tablespoons of molasses because I was a little short of agave syrup and it was delicious.

It is not a big pie, in fact I bake it in a 9” tart pan with a removable bottom and it’s only about ¾ “ in depth, perfect for a sliver of something sweet without being overwhelming.

If you don’t have time to make the pastry then just make the filling and add to a frozen 9” pie crust.
