This is an excellent pecan pie--the pecan-maple pairing is really delicious!! I scaled the recipe down to one serving and made a tiny pie for DH and I, and that was perfect (although measuring out 1/16 of teaspoon of maple extract was a bit of a challenge!). I'll definitely make this recipe again; the pecan pie recipe I've made for many past holiday dinners pales in comparison to this one, and has been retired! Thanks for a great recipe John DOH!!
