INSTRUCTIONS
To make the crust:
Mix the flour, organic sugar and salt in a food processor.
Add butter slowly, using the on/off switch until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Blend enough water to form moist clumps of dough.
Remove dough and form into a ball, then flatten dough into a disk.
Wrap with plastic wrap and chill for one hour.
Roll dough on a floured work surface to a 13″ round size.
Transfer to a 9″ pie pan.
Trim and crimp the edges.
Chill in freezer for 15 minutes.
To make the pie filling:
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Whisk the first five ingredients in a large bowl until blended.
Place organic pecans in the bottom of the pie shell.
Pour the filling mixture into the pie shell.
Bake the pie until set or a knife inserted into the center of the pie come out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
