Post Awesome SF Pecan Pie!!!!

A friend and I exchange recipes for diabetic treats, as both hubbys are diabetics. Her mom is incredible at taking a sugar free (SF) recipe and "tweaking" it, to make it more like the normal sugar laden one. Here is a recipe that I tried last night and couldn't wait to share! I promise that if you don't tell, no one will know the difference!

Sugar Free Pecan Pie

3 eggs
5 tsp Splenda (or any other sugar substitute suitable for baking)
1 cup sugar free honey (SF syrup works, but not quite as tasty)
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup pecans (plus a few halves, if you want, for the top)
1 pinch salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 pie dough (9" or 8x11" rectangle glass baking dish)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Lightly beat eggs with Splenda. Stir in the butter, "honey", salt & vanilla. Add the pecans, stir just until mixed. Line your baking dish with the pie dough. Pour in the pecan mixture. Bake appx. 50 minutes (until the top is crusted and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean). If you have pie crust exposed much on the edges, you may want to cover the edge with foil for the first 20-30 minutes. If you use the rectangle baking dish, there is very little crust above the filling line, so no need.

Cool before cutting... ENJOY!

I can't wait to try this recipe as my husband is diabetic, and pecan pie is his favorite! I'm sure he would rather have something home-made instead of sugar-free popsicles, jello and the like. Thank you for sharing! ps. we have a LARGE bag of pecans just given to us.
