The pecan brittle was a bit too hard for my liking, but the pie filling was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll skip the pecan brittle next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I think I'll try using less maple syrup next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pie turned out perfect. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was golden brown and flaky.

This pie was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought crust to save time, and it still tasted amazing.

This pumpkin pie was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The maple flavor was subtle but delicious, and the salted pecan brittle added a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making this again next year.
