This wonderful recipe has been passed down from my Grandma, to my Mother and now to me. This is not like your typical pecan pie, more of a softened macaroon.

Provided by JennT

Categories     Pie

Time 2h30m

Yield 1 Pie, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

11 squares graham crackers (finely ground)
1 cup pecans (chopped fine)
3 egg whites (large)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 pint whipping cream, sweetened to taste (When making whipped cream, as you are beating the mixture, just slowly sprinkle in sugar to sweeten)

Steps:

  • Beat egg whites until very fluffy.
  • Add baking powder.
  • Very slowly add sugar while mixer beats (will become thick and heavy).
  • With rubber spatula, fold in cracker crumbs (you can roller crackers in a plastic bag to make fine crumbs).
  • Fold in nuts and vanilla.
  • Pour into greased 8" or 9" round pie pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Do not under-bake, will puff up and then settle and crack.
  • Cool, then chill in refrigerator.
  • Night before or early morning, seal to edge with whipped cream.
  • Decorate with fine graham cracker crumbs. This is even better the longer it sits with the whipped cream on it to soften it all the way through.

BASIC PECAN PIE RECIPE BY TASTY



Basic Pecan Pie Recipe by Tasty image

It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without classic pecan pie on the dessert table! Our recipe uses the classic (and foolproof) Tasty pie crust to envelop the sweet and nutty filling.

Provided by Chris Salicrup

Categories     Desserts

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 kosher salt
1 ¼ sticks unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
2 large egg yolks
4 tablespoons ice water
2 cups pecan, halves, divided
¾ cup light corn syrup
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon kosher salt
dried bean

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Sift the flour and salt together into a large bowl.
  • Using only your fingertips, pinch the cubes of butter into the flour, breaking up the butter as you go, until no large lumps remain. Shake the bowl to coax the large chunks of butter to the surface.
  • Mix the egg yolks and ice water together in a small bowl with a fork until evenly combined.
  • Add the liquid to the flour mixture, reserving ¼ or so in case you don't need all of it--you don't want the pastry to be too wet. Quickly mix everything together with a fork until the dough just starts to come together. Add more liquid to the driest parts of the dough if needed. The dough is ready when it holds together in a ball when squeezed in your palm.
  • Transfer the dough to a clean surface and bring together in a disc. Wrap the dough disc in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 days.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Lightly flour a clean surface and unwrap the disc of chilled dough. Flour the top of the dough. Start to roll out the dough, turning every few rolls.. If any cracks form, smush them back together. Roll out the dough to a circle about ⅛-inch (3 mm) thick and place into a 9-inch (22 cm) pie dish. Trim any excess dough around the sides, then crimp the edges in a decorative pattern.
  • Place a piece of parchment in the center of the pie crust and add the pie weights or dried beans. 9. Bake for 15 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
  • Make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together 1½ cups (185 G) pecans, corn syrup, eggs, sugar, vanilla, melted butter, and salt.
  • Carefully lift the parchment with the pie weights from the par-baked pie crust, then pour in the filling. Arrange the remaining ½ cup (62 G) pecans in concentric circles on top.
  • Return the pie to the oven for 20 minutes, then cover with a piece of foil and continue baking for 40 minutes, until the filling is completely set. Let the pie cool completely.
  • Slice and serve the pie chilled or at room temperature.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your pecan pie.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the dough tough and crumbly. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Blind-bake the pie crust: This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy. To blind-bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  • Use a good quality pecan filling: A good quality pecan filling will be made with fresh pecans and real maple syrup. Avoid fillings that are made with corn syrup or artificial flavors.
  • Don't overcook the pie: Overcooking will make the filling dry and crumbly. Bake the pie until the filling is just set, about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Pecan pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, buttery filling and flaky crust, pecan pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. By following these tips, you can make the best pecan pie possible.
