- Bake at 325°F (163°C) for 45 to 60 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the mixture. If you prefer a healthier option, substitute half of the sugar with a natural sweetener like honey or agave syrup. You can also replace the raisins with dried cranberries or dates for a different taste. Ensure the butter is fully melted to avoid clumps when mixing.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the pie warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It pairs beautifully with a cup of tea or coffee. For a festive touch, sprinkle some extra toasted coconut on top before serving. This pie also makes a delightful addition to a brunch spread alongside Fruit Salad or Healthy Carrot Bread.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds or warm them in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10 minutes. This will help maintain the pie's texture and flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of nut in this pie?
Yes, you can easily substitute the pecans with walnuts or almonds, depending on your preference. Just keep in mind that different nuts have varying flavors and textures, which can alter the final taste of the pie.
Is it possible to make this pie dairy-free?
Absolutely! You can replace the butter with a dairy-free margarine or coconut oil and use a plant-based milk like almond or oat milk instead of regular milk. This will give you a delicious dairy-free version of the pie.
What can I do if I don't have a pie crust?
If you don't have a pie crust on hand, you can make a quick graham cracker crust by combining crushed graham crackers with melted butter and sugar, or simply bake the filling in a greased pie dish without a crust for a crustless pie option.
