Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

One batch Sweet Pastry Dough, for a 1-crust pie
Filling
1 cup dark corn syrup
3/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter
3 large eggs
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons Bourbon
2 cups pecan halves or pieces, or a combination

Steps:

  • Prepare and chill the dough.
  • For the filling, combine corn syrup and sugar in saucepan and stir to mix. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, without stirring. Remove from heat, add butter and allow butter to melt. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs to break up and whisk in salt and Bourbon. Whisk in syrup and butter mixture, being careful not to over mix. Allow to cool while preparing bottom crust.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the lowest level. For the bottom crust, lightly flour the work surface and the dough and roll it to a 12-inch disk. Fold the dough in half and place it in the pan; unfold the dough and press it firmly into the pan. Trim away all but 1/2-inch excess dough at edge of pan. Fold dough under and flute edge.
  • Arrange pecans in crust. Skim foam from top of filling (or the top will have an unattractively mottled surface) and pour over pecans. With the back of a fork, press the pecans down into the filling so that they are immersed.
  • Bake the pie for about 45 minutes, until the crust is baked through and the filling is set and well puffed in the center. Cool the pie on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

This pecan pie was okay. It wasn't the best I've ever had, but it wasn't bad either.

This pecan pie was a disappointment. It didn't taste like anything.

This pecan pie is the worst pecan pie I've ever had. The filling was bland and the crust was soggy.

This pecan pie was a disaster. The crust was burnt and the filling was too runny.

This pecan pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the crust was delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of pecan pie, but this one was really good. The filling was sweet and nutty, and the crust was buttery and flaky.

I love the gooey filling and flaky crust of this pecan pie. It's always a crowd-pleaser.

I've made this pie several times now, and it always turns out perfectly. It's my go-to recipe for pecan pie.

This pecan pie was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The filling was rich and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and nuttiness. The crust was flaky and buttery, and held up well to the gooey filling.
