Oh my! Pecan pie!

November 22, 2020

Oh my! Pecan pie! . Who’s in the Thanksgiving spirit yet? 🙋🏻‍♀️Yes, I am. Love the warm and spiced aromas that take over the kitchen. So starting the week off with the traditional pecan pie! And when I say traditional... I mean it. Buttery, flaky, no good for you... yet the best. I make it once a year, so no skimping! . Roll out pie crust to approx 12 inches and fit it in a flour dusted 9 inch glass pie dish. Crimp the edges & refrigerate for 10 mins to keep crust chill. Remove from refrigerator, dust with flour, cover with parchment paper, add pie weights (substitute: beans, grains), bake at 400 F (preheated) for 15 minutes. As crust is baking, mix together - 1/2 cup dark brown sugar, 1/4 cup sugar in the raw, 3 large beaten eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 cup melted butter and 3/4 cup non fructose corn syrup (substitute: maple syrup, golden syrup). Get the par baked crust out, remove weights and parchment paper. Layer the crust with 2 cups chopped pecans, pour the sugar/egg mix over pecans. Cover the pie edges with foil and bake at 375 F (preheated) for approx 35-40 minutes or until pie filling is jiggly. Add whole pecans on top, brush butter on edges and back in the oven for 5 minutes. Out and let it rest for a couple of hours and indulge! . It’s thanks from the heart for all your support with this plated expression. . Make it. Share it. Tag it #platedexpressions .
