Time 6h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 tablespoons ice water
1 stick unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups packed dark-brown sugar
1 cup maple syrup, preferably grade A
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 1/2 cups toasted pecan halves

Steps:

  • Dough: Whisk together flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add butter, tossing to evenly coat. Rub butter between fingers and thumbs, continuing to toss with flour until mixture has texture of coarse sand. Sprinkle evenly with ice water and stir with hands, gently kneading a few times, just until a dough forms. Flatten into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim excess, leaving a 1-inch overhang, then fold edges under. Crimp edges as desired. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Filling: Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar, syrup, and flour and cook, stirring constantly, just until mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Whisk together milk, eggs, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Slowly add warm butter mixture, whisking constantly, until smooth. Pour filling into pie shell, then arrange pecans evenly on top.
  • Bake until pie is puffed and set along edges but still wobbly in center when gently shaken, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. (Loosely tent pie with foil if top darkens too quickly.) Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

MAPLE-HONEY PECAN PIE



Maple-Honey Pecan Pie image

Substituting a combination of maple syrup and honey for the usual corn syrup in pecan pie makes for a complex and richly flavored confection that's still wonderfully gooey in the center. This recipe also has double the amount of pecans compared with most recipes, giving it plenty of crunch. You can bake it the day before serving; it keeps very well at room temperature for at least 24 hours. It also freezes reasonably well for up to 3 months, though the crust won't be quite as flaky.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

All-purpose flour, for rolling out the dough
Dough for a 9-inch single crust pie
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter
1/4 cup/85 grams maple syrup
1/4 cup/85 grams honey
1/2 cup/110 grams light brown sugar
1/2 cup/75 grams maple sugar or use more light brown sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon bourbon (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups/180 grams pecan halves
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon (optional)

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch circle, and transfer to a 9-inch metal pie plate. Fold over any excess dough, crimping the edges. Transfer crust to the freezer for 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
  • When ready to bake, place a rimmed baking sheet on the middle oven rack and heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Heat a small saucepan and melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides, the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter smells nutty and toasty, about 5 minutes. Add maple syrup to the pan and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and reduces slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk honey into the warm syrup mixture. Let cool at least 10 minutes.
  • While the syrup mixture cools, combine sugars, eggs, bourbon (if using), vanilla and salt in a large mixing bowl. Gradually pour syrup mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, then use a rubber spatula to scrape in all the brown bits at the bottom of the pot.
  • Remove pie crust from freezer and place pecans along the bottom of the crust. Carefully pour the filling over the pecans. Place pie plate on the hot sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake for another 35 to 45 minutes, until the center of the pie has puffed up and turned golden brown.
  • Transfer pie to a wire cooling rack, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if you like, and allow to cool for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

EASY MAPLE PECAN PIE



Easy Maple Pecan Pie image

I have had success with this pie many times, and takes a matter of minutes to prepare with a frozen pie crust. Of coarse you can use your own pastry recipe ...just mix all ingredients together, pour into prepared crust and bake. This pie is sweet, and should be served with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Prepare the pie crust in advance: You can make the pie crust up to 2 days ahead of time and keep it wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator. This will save you time on the day you're ready to make the pie.
  • Use high-quality maple syrup: The quality of the maple syrup you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the pie. Look for a dark, amber-colored maple syrup that is labeled "Grade A."
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast the pecans in a preheated 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Don't overcook the pie: The pie is done when the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Overcooked pie will have a tough, rubbery crust and a runny filling.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the pie to firm up. You can serve the pie warm or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Maple pecan pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, creamy filling and buttery crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give this maple pecan pie recipe a try.
