5 Cup Pecan Pie image

Don't like too sweet pecan pie? You'll like this one then, it's mostly nuts with just enough filling to hold them together. Nice change of pace and very decadent. I saw a pecan pie at a local Creole restaurant, in a suburb of Washington DC, that gave me the idea to develop this one.

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 Pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 1/2 cups pecan halves
3 tablespoons flour
12 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pie shell

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of the pecans on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned and fragrant.
  • Let cool completely.
  • Place the roasted nuts in a food processor and process until smooth and buttery.
  • Add the flour and pulse until incorporated.
  • Scrape into a large bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it starts to foam and turns a light brown.
  • Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Add the brown sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla, and browned butter to the nut paste and stir until well blended.
  • Fold in the remaining 5 cups pecans.
  • Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie shell.
  • Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the filling is slightly puffed and the crust is golden brown.
  • Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.

Overall, I thought this pecan pie was pretty good. The filling was sweet and gooey, and the crust was flaky. However, I thought it was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would definitely make it again, but I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This pecan pie was a disappointment. The filling was grainy and the crust was soggy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pecan pie was a hit at our Thanksgiving gathering! The filling was rich and gooey, with a perfect balance of sweetness and nuttiness. The crust was flaky and buttery, and held up well to the filling. I'll definitely be making this pie again.
