Ultimate Cinnamon Pecan Pie: A Delicious Twist!
  • Prep Time

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of whole pecans
  • coating of non-stick spray
  • a can of refrigerated cinnamon roll dough, divided into pieces
  • ¾ cup of rich dark corn syrup
  • light brown sugar, packed into ½ cup
  • 3 tablespoons of melted butter
  • 3 large room temperature eggs
  • 2 teaspoons of finely ground cinnamon
  • a teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
  • a dash of salt, about ½ teaspoon
  • topping of creamy cream cheese frosting

Step 1

Begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), allowing it to warm up for the baking ahead. Take a moment to set out the pecans on a baking sheet, ready to transform into toasted, fragrant goodness.

Step 2

Prepare a 9-inch pie pan by giving it a light spritz of cooking spray. Line another baking sheet with either parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup later on.

Step 3

Gently press the cinnamon rolls into the pie pan, ensuring the edges are sealed together to form a delicious 'crust' awaiting its filling.

Step 4

In a bowl, combine the corn syrup and brown sugar until the mixture reaches a thick, sticky consistency. Introduce the butter and whisk until the blend turns smooth. Gradually add eggs one by one, whisking thoroughly after each addition until they are fully incorporated. Introduce cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into the brown sugar concoction for a flavorful touch.

Step 5

Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the cinnamon roll base, followed by pouring the brown sugar mixture over the nutty layer. Place the assembled pie on the prepared baking sheet, ready for its transformation in the oven.

Step 6

Bake the pie for 15 minutes at the initial temperature. Remember to shield the crust with foil strips to prevent any unwanted burning. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until the pie sets in the center, for roughly 20 to 25 additional minutes. Allow the pie to cool for about 15 minutes.

Step 7

To add a finishing touch, warm the cream cheese frosting in a microwave-safe bowl until it reaches a pourable consistency, taking around 30 seconds. Drizzle the luscious frosting over the pie and let it set slightly, giving it that irresistible appeal for about 20 minutes.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your pecans fresh and crunchy by storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This will help preserve their natural oils and flavor.
  2. 2. Store your cinnamon in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight to retain its spicy aroma and taste. Consider transferring it to a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid for long-term storage.
