I'm having a lot of guests for Shabbos and looking for a second dessert option. (Already making chocolate mousse pie.) This cinnamon pie looks delicious and I want to try it, but I have to leave out the pecans (stupid nut allergies!) and I'm wondering if it'll be good if I just omit them.

Any other non-chocolate, nut-free, peanut-free suggestions welcome Smile

Thanks! mha3484 do you think it would be okay without the nuts?

Also, needs to be easy to make (not a ton of dishes or weird ingredients), easy to double, and freezable. I know, lots of restrictions, sorry Wink

but trying to get a head start here.

I cant remember if I used nuts or not. Usually, the only nuts I tend to have around are sliced almonds so its pretty likely I left them out. If you do facebook Miriam has a group where you can ask questions about her recipes.

I dont know it off hand but I think its basically oil, sugar, flour...I mix it with ice cream put into round pan and top with choc sauce - melted choc chips with whip (9 oz choc chips with 1/4-1/2 C whip)

If I remember tonight I can post the recipe...

I have made this recipe a bunch of times and it it really good. It freezes beautifully! Maybe not the quickest to make since you have to make the 2 separate parts and layer them but not too hard and uses standard ingredients. I usually triple or even quadruple and freeze. If you want to be fancy you can warm it up a little before serving and serve with a scoop of ice cream. It's always a big hit when I make it. I've always made with the pecans but think it would be just fine if you left them out.

Thanks lfab! jewishmom6 I'd love that recipe if you can get to it. I think I will make the cinnamon bun pie, I'll try to remember to update if it's good without the nuts (may leave off the glaze, too...)

It doesn't need the nuts.

However, I've had difficulty with this recipe. The dough/filling did not spread easily or look pretty for me.

I freeze it baked. But be sure not to overbake. You want it to be soft. If you bake too long it will be dry.

Yes, the batter is thick so doesn't spread so easily. You have to spread it very gently so as not to break the crust. Then I dallop the cinnamon filling and swirl with a knife and repeat for each layer. It doesn't need to be perfectly spread. You'll still get the yummy cinnamon taste in each piece. Also, I don't usually get as many layers as they say

I've made it twice without the nuts. Still good! It is hard to spread the batter, though.

Has anyone ever made this by hand without a mixer? Always lazy to take out my Bosch.
