Preparation for the pie

✔Whole skins to place on the tart
Work the kneaded butter with the sugar and liquid vanilla. Add the eggs one by one, mixing between each addition. Finally, add the maple syrup and chopped walnuts (Set aside the whole pecan kernels and chop only the least beautiful ones)
Line the tart tin with the mixture. Arrange the whole walnuts on top. Bake at 180°C for 30 minutes, then cover with aluminium foil and cook for 10 minutes more. Leave to cool well before removing from the tin.
