Toasted Pecan Pie Crust
2 Cups toasted pecans
2 teaspoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon water
Lay the pecans on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast for about 2-3 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Watch them carefully
Remove and place the pecans in a food processor and grind until fine. Add the remaining ingredients and continue to process until the mix starts forming a ball and pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
Press into a 9 inch pie pan, pressing the mix evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
