Maple Oatmeal Raisin Pie

CRUST
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. finely chopped pecans
1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 cup Crisco butter shortening
3 Tbsp. ice water

Combine flour, powdered sugar, finely chopped pecans and 1/8 tsp. salt; cut in shortening
until flour is blended to form pea-size chunks. Sprinkle mixture with water, 1 Tbsp at a
time. Toss lightly with fork until dough forms a ball. Form a disc. Roll and press crust
into a 9-inch pie plate. Set aside while preparing filling.

FILLING
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/8 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 crunchy granola bars crushed, (3/4 cup)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup mini maple chips
1 cup Sunmaid raisins

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and maple syrup until
blended. Beat in salt, maple flavoring and eggs. Stir in crushed granola bars, nuts, maple
chips and raisins. Bake 40-50 minutes, or until filling is set and crust is golden. Cool
then refrigerate. Decorate with sweetened whipped cream, if desired.
