Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2/3 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp coconut sugar (or cane sugar)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 2-3 tbsp coconut oil (or butter/vegan butter)
  • 1/4 cup cold water

For the Filling

  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a food processor, add the almond flour, coconut flour, sugar, and salt. Pulse a couple of times to combine. Then add the eggs and coconut oil, and pulse a few more times to combine. It will start to resemble wet sand.
  • Next, turn the food processor on and let it run while you slowly pour in the cold water. The dough will start to come together and form into a ball. Then remove the dough from the processor and knead it with your hands a couple of times to make sure it is all combined.
  • Oil the bottom of a glass pie dish, and now it is time to form the crust. Gently press the crust out with your fingers, making sure that you go up the sides of the pie dish. Do your best to make it an even crust all the way around. Pierce the crust with a fork a few times.
  • Bake the crust at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes, this will prevent a soggy crust later.
  • While the crust is pre-baking, prepare the filling. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, honey, eggs, coconut oil, vanilla, cinnamon and salt until evenly combined. Then use a spoon or spatula to stir in the pecan pieces. 
  • When the crust is done pre-baking, remove from the oven and gently pour the pecan filling onto the pie crust. Fill it up almost to the top, making sure to not overfill. You don't want it to spill over the outside of the crust. 
  • Carefully set it back in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. When it is done baking, let it cool completely before serving. This pie can be eaten warm, at room temperature, or cold. Store it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
