Pecan Pie #7

From John Robbins " May All Be Fed - Diet for a New World "

 

1/2 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup barley malt syrup

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon arrowroot powder

2 tablespoons raw tahini

2 1/2 cups pecan halves

 

whole wheat pie dough:

1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

1/2 cup plus 1 table spoon canola or safflower oil

3 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons ice water

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

 

Line a 10 inch pie pan with the pie dough. With a fork, prick holes all

over the bottom and sides of the pie shell. Bake until a light golden

colour, 10-15 minutes. Let cool.

 

Put the maple syrup, barley malt syrup, cinnamon, arrowroot, and tahini in a

food processor and process until smooth. Add the pecans and pulse several

times to coarsely chop the nuts.* Pour the filling into the baked pie

shell. Bake until the folling is bubbly and the top is evenly browned,

25-30 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
