Deluxe Pecan Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a small mixing bowl, beat eggs, sugar, salt, butter, syrup, and cream. Stir in vanilla, whiskey, and pecans.
• Pour into 4 pastry lined pie pans. Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until filling is set and pastry is golden brown cool.
• If desired, serve with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat eggs slightly, then stir in next 4 ingredients until well blended. Stir in pecans.
• Pour into pie crust.
• Bake in 350 degrees F oven for 50-55 minutes (or depends on your oven temperature), or until knife inserted halfway between center comes out clean. Cool. Add Cool Whip topping if desired.

Steps:

• In small mixer bowl beat eggs, sugar, salt, butter, syrup and cream.
• Stir in vanilla, brandy and pecans.
• Pour into pastry shell.
• Bake in 375 degree oven 40-50 minutes or until filling is set.
• Cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with a baking sheet on middle rack.
• Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 12-inch round and fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold overhang under and lightly press against rim of pie plate, then crimp decoratively. Lightly prick bottom all over with a fork. Chill until firm, at least 30 minutes (or freeze 10 minutes).
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Remove from heat and whisk in corn syrup, vanilla, zest, and salt. Lightly beat eggs in a medium bowl, then whisk in corn syrup mixture.
• Put pecans in pie shell and pour corn syrup mixture evenly over them. Bake on hot baking sheet until filling is set, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Cool completely.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt margarine with brown sugar.
• Add eggs, salt, and vanilla and mix well.
• Add pecans.
• Pour mixture into an unbaked pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
• Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
• Heat oven to 375°F. With floured rolling pin, roll pastry into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; press with times of fork or flute if desired.
• In another medium bowl, beat all filling ingredients except pecans with wire whisk or hand beater until well blended. Stir in pecans. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate.
• Cover edge of pastry with 2- to 3-inch-wide strip of foil to prevent excessive browning. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until center is set, removing foil for last 15 minutes of baking. Refrigerate at least 2 hours until chilled before serving. Store in refrigerator.
