Maple Syrup Pecan Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate while preparing filling., In a bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until smooth. Add maple syrup, butter, vanilla, salt and pecans. Pour into crust. , Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 30-40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. If desired, top with whipped cream to serve. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a 9-inch pie pan with the pie crust. Place it on a sheet pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, honey, maple syrup, butter, eggs, bourbon, vanilla, orange zest and salt. Stir in the pecans and pour into the unbaked pie shell. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, until the center is just set. Set aside to cool, and serve.

Steps:

• Maple syrup: Preferred grades are C, B, and A, in that order.
• Lightly grease a ten-inch pie pan and put the pie crust in it.
• Set the oven at 400°F to preheat.
• Position a rack to the middle.
• In a bowl, beat the eggs until they are combined.
• Add the sugar and mix well.
• Stir in the maple syrup, butter, salt, vanilla, and pecans.
• I'll frequently microwave the filling at this point just until it's warm, especially because my maple syrup and eggs are almost always refrigerator-cold. Stir frequently and don't overheat or the filling will start to set. Warming will allow the filling to set in the oven before the crust gets overcooked.
• Pour the filling into the pie crust and transfer to the oven.
• Bake the pie for 10 minutes.
• Reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes or until the filling is set.
• Give the pie a gentle shake; the center should remain firm (note that another 'zaar member had a problem with the pie being runny - you must bake until the center remains firm when the pie is shaken even if it takes more than 35 minutes).
• Let the pie sit at room temperature to cool completely.
• To make in advance, wrap the cooled pie in plastic wrap, then in heavy-duty aluminum foil (I've never actually done this).
• Gently press the foil against the pie.
• Freeze for up to two months.
• Defrost the wrapped pie at room temperature.
• Uncover the pie and warm in a 300°F oven for ten minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Dough: Whisk together flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add butter, tossing to evenly coat. Rub butter between fingers and thumbs, continuing to toss with flour until mixture has texture of coarse sand. Sprinkle evenly with ice water and stir with hands, gently kneading a few times, just until a dough forms. Flatten into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim excess, leaving a 1-inch overhang, then fold edges under. Crimp edges as desired. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Filling: Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar, syrup, and flour and cook, stirring constantly, just until mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Whisk together milk, eggs, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Slowly add warm butter mixture, whisking constantly, until smooth. Pour filling into pie shell, then arrange pecans evenly on top.
• Bake until pie is puffed and set along edges but still wobbly in center when gently shaken, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. (Loosely tent pie with foil if top darkens too quickly.) Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a rack in the lowest position.
• Combine eggs, maple syrup, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Blend well. Stir in pecans. Pour batter into the pie shell.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shell is golden brown and filling is set, 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl.
• Rub the fats into it until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Add just enough cold water to mix to a dough that leaves the bowl clean. Leave the pastry to rest in a polythene bag in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
• Turn the oven to 400°F.
• Whilst the oven is heating up toast the pecans for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
• Roll the pastry out and place in a pie dish that has been dusted with cornflour.
• Blind bake for 10 minutes.
• Melt the butter and mix together with the maple syrup, sugar, eggs and vanilla essence.
• Fold in the pecans, you can chop them in half if desired.
• Pour the filling into the pie crust and bake for 1 hour at 275°F.
• The pie is ready if it does not wobble at the outer edges when you twist the dish.

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch circle, and transfer to a 9-inch metal pie plate. Fold over any excess dough, crimping the edges. Transfer crust to the freezer for 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
• When ready to bake, place a rimmed baking sheet on the middle oven rack and heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Heat a small saucepan and melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides, the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter smells nutty and toasty, about 5 minutes. Add maple syrup to the pan and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and reduces slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk honey into the warm syrup mixture. Let cool at least 10 minutes.
• While the syrup mixture cools, combine sugars, eggs, bourbon (if using), vanilla and salt in a large mixing bowl. Gradually pour syrup mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, then use a rubber spatula to scrape in all the brown bits at the bottom of the pot.
• Remove pie crust from freezer and place pecans along the bottom of the crust. Carefully pour the filling over the pecans. Place pie plate on the hot sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue to bake for another 35 to 45 minutes, until the center of the pie has puffed up and turned golden brown.
• Transfer pie to a wire cooling rack, sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if you like, and allow to cool for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• In medium bowl, mix flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut in 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle in cold maple flavor mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl.
• Gather pastry into a ball; shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. With floured rolling pin, roll 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute.
• In medium bowl, beat sugar, butter, maple syrup, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the eggs with hand beater until smooth. Stir in pecans. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate. Cover edge of pastry with 2- to 3-inch strip of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil for last 15 minutes of baking.
• Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until set. Cool 15 minutes. In 1-quart saucepan, melt chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon shortening over low heat, stirring constantly; drizzle over top of pie. Serve pie warm or cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk first 7 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Place unbaked crust on baking sheet. Spread nuts over crust. Pour filling over. Bake until filling is set and slightly puffed, about 1 hour. Transfer pie to rack and cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spread the nuts evenly over pie shell.
• Mix together butter or margarine, vanilla, and flour. Beat the eggs well, and blend into the flour mixture. Add salt, maple syrup, and cream. Pour filling over the nuts in the pie shell. Make sure the nuts are covered, so they will not burn.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until knife inserted in center come out clean. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place rack at lowest position.
• Beat eggs and add maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter and vanilla.
• Blend well and stir in pecans.
• Pour into pie shell.
• Bake for 40- 45 minutes or until golden brown and the filling is set. After first 15-20 minutes of baking, use a pie shield to protect crust if it gets too brown. Cool.
