My mom had made this delicious pecan pie since I was a little girl. This recipe is posted in "The Cotton Country" cookbook by Mrs. Russel Bulloch. As odd that it is, I ended up working for her husband, the great Dr. Russell Bulloch, at Pediatric Associates. Hope you enjoy this great recipe as I have.

PECAN PIE WITH MRS. KOSTYRA



Pecan Pie with Mrs. Kostyra image

As common as it is today, pecan pie is a relatively recent addition to the American table. No one knows exactly when it was invented, but since the 1940s -- when it was first popularized in "Joy of Cooking" and "The Fannie Farmer Cookbook" -- myriad pecan-pie recipes have emerged, including this sweet, rich version, brought to us by Martha's mother, Mrs. Kostyra.

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Pate Brisee for Plum Crumb Pie, or frozen store-bought pastry shell
2 1/2 cups pecan halves
4 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. If using homemade pate brisee, lightly dust a clean work surface with flour, and roll dough into a 12-inch circle. Fit circle into a 9-inch pie plate being careful not to stretch dough too thin; create edges of choice. Transfer to freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Coarsely chop 1 1/4 cups pecans; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine eggs and sugar. Whisk to combine. Add corn syrups and vanilla. Whisk until well combined. Add chopped pecans, and stir. Pour into prepared crust.
  • Arrange remaining 1 1/4 cups pecan halves decoratively on top of pie. Bake until crust is golden, filling is firm, and a cake tester inserted in center of pie comes out clean; 50 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before slicing. Serve with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality pecans for the best flavor.
  • Toast the pecans before using them to enhance their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a combination of light and dark brown sugar for a richer flavor.
  • Do not overmix the filling, as this can make the pie tough.
  • Bake the pie until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving to allow the filling to set properly.

Conclusion:

Pecan pie is a classic Southern dessert that is perfect for any occasion. This recipe produces a delicious and decadent pie that is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. With its buttery crust, gooey filling, and crunchy pecans, this pie is sure to become a family favorite.
