Pecan pie is one of my absolute favorite Thanksgiving desserts – the crunchy pecans, buttery crust, and the toothachingly-sweet honey-caramel filling. The problem is that each slice delivers a full meal’s worth of calories, which is not advisable for your physical or mental health after the largest (and best) meal of the year. That’s why I decided to create a light and healthy remake of this dessert to celebrate National Peanut Butter Lover’s Month and Thanksgiving! This recipe doesn’t sacrifice flavor but, rather, improves the flavor with the addition of peanut butter. I title this effort Extreme Peanut Butter Boy Makeover – Pecan Pie Edition.
