BOURBON PECAN PIE



Bourbon Pecan Pie image

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     dessert

Time 6h

Yield 1 pie; 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
3 1/2 ounces pecan halves or pieces
6 ounces all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons ice water
2 tablespoons bourbon, chilled
3 large eggs
3 1/2 ounces sugar
6 ounces golden syrup
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 tablespoon bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
8 ounces Spiced Pecans, recipe follows, coarsely chop 6 ounces and leave the remaining 2 ounces whole
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon dried ground orange peel
1 pound pecan halves
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • To make the crust: Chill the butter in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Pulse the pecans 6 to 7 times in a food processor or until finely ground. Add the flour and salt, and pulse an additional 4 to 5 times. Add the butter and pulse 6 to 7 times, until the texture looks mealy. Remove the lid of the food processor, add the water and bourbon, and pulse 5 to 6 times until the mixture holds together when squeezed and feels like dough. Transfer the dough to a gallon-sized zip-top bag, squeeze together until it forms a ball, then press into a rounded disk and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • To assemble and bake the pie: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Whisk the eggs, sugar, golden syrup, butter, bourbon, vanilla and salt together until combined. Set aside.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Cut along two sides of the zip-top bag, open the bag to expose the dough and sprinkle both sides very lightly with flour. Cover with the bag and roll out with a rolling pin to an 11-inch circle. Open the bag again, and sprinkle the top of the dough with flour. Place the dough into a 9 1/2 to 10-inch tart pan that is 2 inches deep. Gently press the dough into the sides of the pan, crimping and trimming the edges as necessary.
  • Evenly sprinkle the 6 ounces of chopped pecans in the crust and pour the filling on top. Bake for 20 minutes. Place the remaining 2 ounces of whole pecans in a border on the edge of the filling. Bake 10 minutes, until the center of the pie should reach 200 degrees F, and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a cooling rack to room temperature before serving, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
  • Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Mix the salt, cumin, cayenne, cinnamon and orange peel together in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Place the nuts in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and set over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes until they just start to brown and smell toasted. Add the butter and stir until it melts. Add the spice mixture and stir to combine. Once combined, add both sugars and water, stirring until the mixture thickens and coats the nuts, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the nuts to the prepared sheet pan and separate them with a fork or spatula. Allow the nuts to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container for storage. Can be stored for up to 3 weeks. Yield: 1 pound.

BOURBON PECAN PIE



Bourbon Pecan Pie image

This is a classic and simple recipe given a Southern kick with a little bourbon. The alcohol will evaporate when you bake the pie, and you're left with a richly flavored, gooey dessert, intensely sweet with a baseline of vanilla. You do need both light and dark corn syrup for this - using only one or the other will change the pie's flavor. (Don't let making your own pie crust intimidate you: our pie guide has everything you need to know.)

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 disk Test Kitchen's Favorite Pâte Brisée
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
2/3 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons bourbon or dark rum
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
2 1/2 cups pecan halves (10 ounces), 1 cup coarsely chopped
Unsweetened whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish; trim, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold overhang under and crimp as desired. Refrigerate while preparing filling.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then continue cooking, swirling occasionally, until dark golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to stop cooking (you should have about 1/4 cup).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, browned butter, eggs, corn syrup, maple syrup, bourbon, vanilla, and salt. Fold in chopped pecans. Pour filling into pie shell. Starting from outside and working your way in, arrange pecan halves in slightly overlapping concentric circles, covering top of pie.
  • Place a baking sheet on bottom rack of oven, then place pie dish directly on middle rack; bake 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350°F and continue baking until center wobbles just slightly when shaken, 40 minutes to 1 hour (if nuts or crust begin browning too quickly, tent with foil). Let cool completely, at least 4 hours, before serving with whipped cream. Pie can be stored, covered with plastic wrap, at room temperature up to 1 day.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
  • Blind-bake the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Use a good quality bourbon. The bourbon flavor should be prominent in the pie, so don't use a cheap or bottom-shelf brand.
  • Don't overcook the pie. The filling should be set, but it should still have a slight jiggle to it.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

Pecan pie with bourbon creme is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, buttery crust, creamy filling, and hint of bourbon, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give this pecan pie with bourbon creme a try. You won't be disappointed!
