Honey Highlight: Winslow Summer Harvest
Winslow Summer Harvest honey has a rich golden color with a classic flavor to compliment holiday cookies, brownies, and pies, such as our honey pecan pie recipe.
The holiday months bring traditions surrounded by food. As guests, we like to bring something to share, and isn’t baking a homemade pie tastier and more fulfilling than stopping at the grocery store? But many of us do not have the time to bake, so I wanted to combine an easy, tasty and classic holiday pie recipe to share with you. Pecan pie is one of those traditional holiday dishes. Our honey pecan pie is naturally sweetened with honey (no corn syrup!) and simple to make, and will certainly please any crowd.
