Gluten Free Derby Pie (aka Chocolate Pecan Pie)

Step 1

Make your gluten free pie crust. If you are using a store-bought crust, be sure it is thawed to room temperature. See the notes for my easy gluten free pie crust recipe.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350º F and put the oven rack in the middle position.

Step 3

In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients. Use a wire whisk to blend them.

Step 4

In a smaller microwave-safe bowl, warm the butter. Don't make it too hot, or it can cook your eggs. You just want the butter very soft. Add the rest of the wet ingredients and whisk.

Step 5

Pour the wet into the dry ingredients. Add hte pecans and chocolate chips.

Step 6

Mix the pie filling.

Step 7

Pour the pie filling into the prepared pie crust.

Step 8

Use a large spoon to spread the batter evenly in the crust.

Step 9

Bake the crust for 30-40 minutes. The baking time will vary depending on the size pie crust you use.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a rack.
