This Pecan Cream Pie is a mostly no-bake alternative to the classic sugary corn syrup version. It has the silky, slightly tangy texture of cheesecake, lightened with homemade whipped cream, and enriched with the warm, earthy notes of maple syrup. Finely chopped pecans throughout the filling give a satisfying nutty crunch in every bite.
