Bite-sized maple pecan pie treats made with flaky crust, rich maple syrup, and buttery pecans for a sweet, nutty, and festive dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin.
  2. Roll out the pie crust and use a round cutter to cut small circles. Press each circle gently into the muffin tin wells to form crust cups.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  4. Stir in the chopped pecans until evenly combined.
  5. Spoon the pecan mixture evenly into each crust cup, filling about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove and cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Fill crusts only three-quarters full to prevent overflow.
  • Toast pecans beforehand for deeper flavor, if desired.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon for extra warmth.
  • Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top after baking for a sweet-salty finish.
  • Store at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months and thaw at room temperature before serving.
