Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 recipe Pate Brisee
2 large eggs
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups pecans, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll pate brisee into a 12-inch round. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off the excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate, pressing it into the edges.

Return crust to oven and continue baking until golden all over, about 5 minutes more. Transfer pie shell to a wire rack; let cool slightly.
