Classic American and Canadian, Walnut and Walnut Pie! Easy to prepare, we serve it here with simple yet effective homemade pastries and a soft caramel-colored filling. Some people put a tablespoon of whiskey in the mix, so if you're a fan, don't hesitate! If your pie swells while baking, don't worry, it will fall off as it cools and will look great.
