pecan pie recipe

  • Question:-Pecan pie recipe with cream & pecans throughout?
    Years ago I had a recipe for pecan pie with pecans throughout the pie NOT just on top. I've lost the recipe & all my older relatives have passed on. All I remember is that it was a basic recipe with bourbon & cream. Please help.
    Thanks to everyone who has answered so far, but this recipe calls for cream IN the filling. The nuts are toasted & the filling is poured over them so they don't float to the top. It (the recipe) was also featured in the NY Daily news many, many years ago but they don't archive that far back.

    Answer:-PECAN PIE WITH CREAM AND PECANS

    Ingredients:
    1 prepared pie shell, 9-inch, baked
    1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
    1 cup heavy/whipping cream
    4 eggs, separated
    1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped, toasted*
    Preparation:
    In a heavy saucepan, cook 1 cup of the sugar and the cream for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beat egg yolks. Stir about 1/4 of the hot mixture into yolks, then return yolk mixture to pan and continue cooking and stirring another 2 minutes, until thickened and smooth. Remove from heat. Add pecans and pour into pie shell. Make meringue by beating egg whites until stiff. Add remaining 1/2 cup of sugar gradually, beating until glossy. Cover pie with meringue and bake at 325 degrees for about 20 minutes. Cool thoroughly before slicing. This pie is best served the same day. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

  • Question:-How to find the best Pecan Pie recipe? Like award winning?
    I don't just want the first award winning that shows up with a quick google search. I'm trying to find the best pecan pie recipe possible. Anyone know?

    Answer:-As such things are a personal judgement and are constantly being judged there is no pie that stands out as an outright leader.
    It you just look down the page when you google them you will see which of the major contributors claim is their best one.
    I can only suggest you make several with different recipes and make your own judgement, but you will only have your own opnion to go by.

    As you can see here, http://au.search.yahoo.com/search?p=best%20Pecan%20Pie%20recipe they all claim their is.
  • Question:-What is your best pecan pie recipe?
    What is your personal best recipe?

    Also I have looked online and everything suggests putting toasted nuts on the bottom of the pie, then adding the filling. It's been a loooong time since I've made a pecan pie, but I like the pecans on the top. Do I put those on before or after the pie is cooked.

    Answer:-Look up Karo syrup on the Internet. Dark or clear Karo syrup makes the best pecan pies! I have never roasted the nuts! The recipe may be on the bottle.
  • Question:-Super easy pecan pie recipe?
    My grandmother asked me to make a pecan pie for Thanksgiving. I have never made one. I am not too good in the kitchen, either. I looked online and there are SO many options. Anyone know a recipe that is easy and yummy?

    Answer:-If you don't feel comfortable making the pie crust, buy the refrigerated ones - they are quite good.

    Southern Pecan Pie
    Prep: 35 minutes
    Bake: 45 minutes

    Ingredients
    1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup shortening
    1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
    4 to 5 tablespoons cold water
    3 eggs
    1 cup corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup margarine or butter, melted
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1-1/2 cups pecan halves
    Whipped cream

    Directions
    1. For pastry, in a bowl stir together the 1-1/4 cups flour and salt. Cut in shortening until pieces are the size of small peas. Stir in finely chopped pecans. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push to side of bowl. Repeat until all is moistened. Form dough into a ball.

    2. On a lightly floured surface, flatten dough with your hands. Roll dough from center to edges, forming a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Wrap pastry around a rolling pin. Unroll pastry into a 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate; fold under extra pastry. Make a fluted edge. Do not prick pastry.

    3. For filling, in a mixing bowl beat eggs lightly with a rotary beater until combined. Stir in corn syrup, sugar, margarine, the 1 tablespoon flour, the bourbon, and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.

    4. Place pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Pour the filling into the pastry-lined pie plate. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool.

    5. Serve with whipped cream. Cover and chill to store. Makes 8 servings.

    Joyce's Pecan Pie
    8 servings
    Prep: 25 minutes
    Bake: 35 to 40 minutes
    Cool: 2 hours
    Stand: 2 hours

    Ingredients
    1 recipe Lard-Crust Pastry (see recipe below) or your favorite single crust pastry
    3 eggs, slightly beaten
    1 cup light-colored corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup butter, melted
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 cups pecan halves

    Directions
    1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Prepare and roll out Lard Crust Pastry. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry. Trim; crimp edge as desired.

    2. For filling, in a mixing bowl combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and salt. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.*

    3. Place the pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Carefully pour the filling into the pastry shell.

    4. To prevent over browning, cover edge of the pie with foil. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate within 2 hours. Serves 8.

    *Note: If desired, prepare egg mixture as above, set aside 2 tablespoons of the mixture. Stir 1 cup of the pecans into the egg mixture and pour into prepared pie crust. Add remaining pecans to the reserved egg mixture; toss to coat. Arrange on top of the filling. Bake as above.

    Lard-Crust Pastry: In a medium bowl stir together 1 1/4 cups flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/3 cup lard until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cold water over part of the flour mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening flour mixture, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the flour mixture is moistened. (You will need about 3 to 4 tablespoons of water.) Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough. Roll dough from center to edges into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.

pie crust

  • Question:-pie crust?
    so i just made pie crust and it looks crumbly..does it have to be that way.
    and when i try to roll it a little bit out to flatten it it goes apart a little.
    is dat the way its supposed to seem?

    ohyeah should i freeze this pie crust or just put it in the fridge?

    Answer:-add more shortning nead one more time should be fine
  • Question:-Pie Crust ?
    I have 2 rolled dough pie crusts. Is there any recipes I can make with these other than a pie?

    Answer:-Arseholes (aka dirty bums)...they don't sound very tasty, but they are, lol. Lay the dough on the counter and brush with butter, put a thin even layer of brown sugar and sprinkle with cinnamon. Then roll it up and slice the log every 1-2 inches. Lay flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake. My Grandmother used to always make them for us with the left over pie crust pieces. YUMMY.
  • Question:-Pie crust.......?
    What makes a pie crust shrink when baked and how do you prevent it?

    Answer:-Gluten strands makes the pie crust shrink when you bake it. Allowing the dough time to rest between mixing, rolling, and baking will reduce the amount of shrinkage that occurs. Other than that there isn't really anything you can do to avoid it, you just have to remember that its going to shrink up a little bit and roll it out slightly bigger.
  • Question:-How long does pillsbury pie crust stay good in refrigerator?
    I have a pillsbury pie crust in my refrigerator... I used one crust & threw out the box, but kept the other packaged crust in the refrigerator for about 5 days now. Is the pie crust still good?

    Answer:-It should be okay. Pie crusts are made from shortening and flour, so there really isn't anything in it that would "go bad" quickly. The only thing I would worry about would be drying out too much...
  • Question:-Do you bake the pie crust before you put the pecan pie filling in?
    I bought the pie crust at the store. I want to know if i bake the pie crust then the pecan pie filling in? Or do you put it all in and then bake?

    Answer:-You put it all in and bake. If you bake the crust before, then bake it again after you put the stuff in, it will end up burning the crust!!! good luck and merry christmas!!
  • Question:-How do I keep my pie crust from getting soggy?
    When baking pies, the outer crust is always golden brown and flaky, but the pie crust under the fruit always turns out soggy. This has happened with both fruit pies and custard pies.

    Answer:-Before you bake your crust, brush the bottom with a beaten egg. Then bake for 15 minutes, let cool, then add filling. Cover the outer edges with foil and bake as usual. When almost done baking, remove the foil and bake till edges are golden.

    By brushing egg yolk on the bottom, then baking, you are forming a seal that will help keep moisture out.

    Good Luck!
  • Question:-Any good Pie crust recipes using butter or vegetable oil instead of shortening?
    I just picked a bushel of apples and want to make some pies but I just realized I'm out of solid (Crisco) shortening. Does anyone have any tried & delicious pie crust recipes using real butter or canola oil?

    Answer:-You can substitute exact measurements of butter for other fats, but remeber if it is table butter it already has salt added to it. You can also make a crust with oil, but it is much harder to get a flaky crust with oil.
  • Question:-Can I substitute butter for shortening in a pie crust?
    I'm making a French silk pie and the ingredients for the crust say to use shortening or lard. Can I use butter instead? This is for the "Baked Pie Crust". Should I use the Graham Cracker crust instead? I know how to make the pie part, it's just the crust I'm worried about. Thanks!
    Yeah I mean real butter not margarine.

    Answer:-You can use the buter in place of shortening. I've done that before. The crust won't be quite as flaky as it is with shortening but it will work just fine.
  • Question:-How not to break pie crust while cutting?
    I'm planning to make a few pies with a homemade cookie crust for each one. However, I'd like to make sure that the crust (on the bottom of the pie) doesn't break while I'm cutting it (which is what has happened in the past).

    Are there any steps that I can take to ensure that as I cut the pies to serve, they won't break apart at the crust? (Especially on the very edge of each slice?)

    Answer:-Hi,
    I used to work in a pastry shop, and we do it is, use a large kitchen knife, longer than the pie, and cut with a swift stroke. (ie, no hesitation)
  • Question:-How do you bake a good pie crust that will cut without crumbling?
    I have been buying store bought pie crusts. I never bake the empty crust first. I always make custard pies. Every time the pie is cooked and I need to cut the first piece, it usually falls apart and the piece doesn't come out clean. Any ideas as to how to remedy this problem?

    Answer:-Well, my family usually makes sugar cookie pie
    crusts because they taste sweeter and don't fall
    apart. You could try that, there are several different
    recipes online:D

pecan pie recipe

  • Question:-Pecan pie recipe with cream & pecans throughout?
    Years ago I had a recipe for pecan pie with pecans throughout the pie NOT just on top. I've lost the recipe & all my older relatives have passed on. All I remember is that it was a basic recipe with bourbon & cream. Please help.
    Thanks to everyone who has answered so far, but this recipe calls for cream IN the filling. The nuts are toasted & the filling is poured over them so they don't float to the top. It (the recipe) was also featured in the NY Daily news many, many years ago but they don't archive that far back.

    Answer:-PECAN PIE WITH CREAM AND PECANS

    Ingredients:
    1 prepared pie shell, 9-inch, baked
    1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
    1 cup heavy/whipping cream
    4 eggs, separated
    1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped, toasted*
    Preparation:
    In a heavy saucepan, cook 1 cup of the sugar and the cream for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beat egg yolks. Stir about 1/4 of the hot mixture into yolks, then return yolk mixture to pan and continue cooking and stirring another 2 minutes, until thickened and smooth. Remove from heat. Add pecans and pour into pie shell. Make meringue by beating egg whites until stiff. Add remaining 1/2 cup of sugar gradually, beating until glossy. Cover pie with meringue and bake at 325 degrees for about 20 minutes. Cool thoroughly before slicing. This pie is best served the same day. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

    Also I have looked online and everything suggests putting toasted nuts on the bottom of the pie, then adding the filling. It's been a loooong time since I've made a pecan pie, but I like the pecans on the top. Do I put those on before or after the pie is cooked.

    Answer:-Look up Karo syrup on the Internet. Dark or clear Karo syrup makes the best pecan pies! I have never roasted the nuts! The recipe may be on the bottle.
  • Question:-Super easy pecan pie recipe?
    My grandmother asked me to make a pecan pie for Thanksgiving. I have never made one. I am not too good in the kitchen, either. I looked online and there are SO many options. Anyone know a recipe that is easy and yummy?

    Answer:-If you don't feel comfortable making the pie crust, buy the refrigerated ones - they are quite good.

    Southern Pecan Pie
    Prep: 35 minutes
    Bake: 45 minutes

    Ingredients
    1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup shortening
    1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
    4 to 5 tablespoons cold water
    3 eggs
    1 cup corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup margarine or butter, melted
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1-1/2 cups pecan halves
    Whipped cream

    Directions
    1. For pastry, in a bowl stir together the 1-1/4 cups flour and salt. Cut in shortening until pieces are the size of small peas. Stir in finely chopped pecans. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push to side of bowl. Repeat until all is moistened. Form dough into a ball.

    2. On a lightly floured surface, flatten dough with your hands. Roll dough from center to edges, forming a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Wrap pastry around a rolling pin. Unroll pastry into a 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate; fold under extra pastry. Make a fluted edge. Do not prick pastry.

    3. For filling, in a mixing bowl beat eggs lightly with a rotary beater until combined. Stir in corn syrup, sugar, margarine, the 1 tablespoon flour, the bourbon, and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.

    4. Place pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Pour the filling into the pastry-lined pie plate. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool.

    5. Serve with whipped cream. Cover and chill to store. Makes 8 servings.

    Ingredients

    3 eggs, slightly beaten
    1 cup light-colored corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup butter, melted
    1/2 teaspoon salt

    Directions
    1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Prepare and roll out Lard Crust Pastry. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry. Trim; crimp edge as desired.

    2. For filling, in a mixing bowl combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and salt. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.*

    3. Place the pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Carefully pour the filling into the pastry shell.

    4. To prevent over browning, cover edge of the pie with foil. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate within 2 hours. Serves 8.

    *Note: If desired, prepare egg mixture as above, set aside 2 tablespoons of the mixture. Stir 1 cup of the pecans into the egg mixture and pour into prepared pie crust. Add remaining pecans to the reserved egg mixture; toss to coat. Arrange on top of the filling. Bake as above.

    Lard-Crust Pastry: In a medium bowl stir together 1 1/4 cups flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/3 cup lard until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cold water over part of the flour mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening flour mixture, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the flour mixture is moistened. (You will need about 3 to 4 tablespoons of water.) Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough. Roll dough from center to edges into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.

    Answer:-Look up Karo syrup on the Internet. Dark or clear Karo syrup makes the best pecan pies! I have never roasted the nuts! The recipe may be on the bottle.
  • Question:-Super easy pecan pie recipe?
    My grandmother asked me to make a pecan pie for Thanksgiving. I have never made one. I am not too good in the kitchen, either. I looked online and there are SO many options. Anyone know a recipe that is easy and yummy?

    Answer:-If you don't feel comfortable making the pie crust, buy the refrigerated ones - they are quite good.

    Southern Pecan Pie
    Prep: 35 minutes
    Bake: 45 minutes

    Ingredients
    1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup shortening
    1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
    4 to 5 tablespoons cold water
    3 eggs
    1 cup corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup margarine or butter, melted
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1-1/2 cups pecan halves
    Whipped cream

    Directions
    1. For pastry, in a bowl stir together the 1-1/4 cups flour and salt. Cut in shortening until pieces are the size of small peas. Stir in finely chopped pecans. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push to side of bowl. Repeat until all is moistened. Form dough into a ball.

    2. On a lightly floured surface, flatten dough with your hands. Roll dough from center to edges, forming a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Wrap pastry around a rolling pin. Unroll pastry into a 9-inch pie plate. Ease pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate; fold under extra pastry. Make a fluted edge. Do not prick pastry.

    3. For filling, in a mixing bowl beat eggs lightly with a rotary beater until combined. Stir in corn syrup, sugar, margarine, the 1 tablespoon flour, the bourbon, and vanilla. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.

    4. Place pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Pour the filling into the pastry-lined pie plate. Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool.

    5. Serve with whipped cream. Cover and chill to store. Makes 8 servings.

    Joyce's Pecan Pie
    8 servings
    Prep: 25 minutes
    Bake: 35 to 40 minutes
    Cool: 2 hours
    Stand: 2 hours

    Ingredients
    1 recipe Lard-Crust Pastry (see recipe below) or your favorite single crust pastry
    3 eggs, slightly beaten
    1 cup light-colored corn syrup
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup butter, melted
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 cups pecan halves

    Directions
    1. Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Prepare and roll out Lard Crust Pastry. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry. Trim; crimp edge as desired.

    2. For filling, in a mixing bowl combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and salt. Mix well. Stir in the pecan halves.*

    3. Place the pastry-lined pie plate on the oven rack. Carefully pour the filling into the pastry shell.

    4. To prevent over browning, cover edge of the pie with foil. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes more or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate within 2 hours. Serves 8.

    *Note: If desired, prepare egg mixture as above, set aside 2 tablespoons of the mixture. Stir 1 cup of the pecans into the egg mixture and pour into prepared pie crust. Add remaining pecans to the reserved egg mixture; toss to coat. Arrange on top of the filling. Bake as above.

    Lard-Crust Pastry: In a medium bowl stir together 1 1/4 cups flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/3 cup lard until pieces are pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cold water over part of the flour mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening flour mixture, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the flour mixture is moistened. (You will need about 3 to 4 tablespoons of water.) Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten dough. Roll dough from center to edges into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.

pecan pie recipe

  • Question:-Pecan pie recipe with cream & pecans throughout?
    Years ago I had a recipe for pecan pie with pecans throughout the pie NOT just on top. I've lost the recipe & all my older relatives have passed on. All I remember is that it was a basic recipe with bourbon & cream. Please help.
    Thanks to everyone who has answered so far, but this recipe calls for cream IN the filling. The nuts are toasted & the filling is poured over them so they don't float to the top. It (the recipe) was also featured in the NY Daily news many, many years ago but they don't archive that far back.

    Answer:-PECAN PIE WITH CREAM AND PECANS

    Ingredients:
    1 prepared pie shell, 9-inch, baked
    1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
    1 cup heavy/whipping cream
    4 eggs, separated
    1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped, toasted*
    Preparation:
    In a heavy saucepan, cook 1 cup of the sugar and the cream for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beat egg yolks. Stir about 1/4 of the hot mixture into yolks, then return yolk mixture to pan and continue cooking and stirring another 2 minutes, until thickened and smooth. Remove from heat. Add pecans and pour into pie shell. Make meringue by beating egg whites until stiff. Add remaining 1/2 cup of sugar gradually, beating until glossy. Cover pie with meringue and bake at 325 degrees for about 20 minutes. Cool thoroughly before slicing. This pie is best served the same day. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
