"Healthy" Pean Pie
During the summer and the holiday's, my dad would buy TWO Pecan Pies from a place called Delicious Orchards in NJ. One pie was to serve with dinner and the other was for my sister, brother, mom and I to stand by the counter and eat it out of the box with forks. W would then all complain of a stomach ache but still manage to eat a slice after dinner too. This recipe takes out the overload of sugar and butter but stills leave the distinct Pecan Pie taste.
