from a 28cm tart tin

Ingredients for a 28cm tart tin. For the dough, knead flour with butter, salt, and water. Then wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for one hour. Roll out the chilled dough to a diameter of approximately 30 cm; this works best between two sheets of baking paper. Pour the dough into the greased tart tin and prick the base with a fork. For the topping, crumble the pecans. Cream together the butter, sugar, spice mix, and vanilla sugar. Gradually add the eggs and the sugar beet syrup. Finally, fold in the crushed pecans. Pour the mixture onto the dough and scatter the remaining pecans on top. Bake the pie for approximately 45 minutes at 175°C (top/bottom heat). Let the pecan pie cool completely.
