Bourbon Pecan Pie image

No you can't taste the vinegar--it just tames the over-the-top sweetness of the typical pecan pie. The bourbon? Well it's just plain good!

Time 2h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large eggs
½ cup light brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
1 ½ tablespoons half-and-half
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon quick-mixing flour (such as Wondra®)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups pecan halves or pieces
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until frothy. Mix in brown sugar. Add corn syrup and mix. Add butter, bourbon, half-and-half, vinegar, flour, and salt and beat until well mixed, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Toast pecans in a dry skillet over low heat until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Place evenly in the pie crust. Pour filling mixture over. Do not overfill; you may have a little left over. Place pie on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, about 25 minutes more. Cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent overbrowning if desired. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.

This pie was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still came out delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie turned out a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This pie was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The filling was rich and decadent, and the pecans added a nice crunch. The crust was flaky and buttery. I would definitely make this pie again.
