This pie has it all! The filling for this sweet pie is a heavenly combination of dates, brown sugar, and walnuts or pecans. It’s a wonderful alternative to a classic pecan pie. I like it with my favorite butter crust and a big dollop of whipped cream or ice cream, but feel free to use your own crust recipe or make the pie with a refrigerated pastry crust.
