Made this pie after I watched your video. We loved it and my neighbors did too. Thanks for always having such quality recipies.
Thankyou Victoria!
Sounds really good.
I have been making this type of pie for yrs.I am diabetic and can't use karo syrup because of the sugar in it. This is like my pecan pie only i don't put any booze in it just vanilla and no spice.
Wow, that looks good! I love that you used maple syrup instead of Karo.
