Ingredients
Scale
Pie Crust:
- 1 Foolproof All-Butter Pie Crust (or your favorite pie crust)
Filling:
- 8 ounces pecan halves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup (213g) dark brown sugar, packed
- 3/4 cup real maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons (42ml) bourbon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
- 1 large egg yolk, room temperature, lightly beaten
- 4 1/2 tablespoons (63g) unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon (14ml) flour
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare and refrigerate the pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate. Sprinkle flour and granulated sugar over the bottom of the crust for extra protection against a soggy crust. Set aside.
- Add Pecans: Spread pecan halves over the unbaked pie crust. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
- Make the Filling: Combine salt, cinnamon, and dark brown sugar in a large bowl. Whisk in maple syrup, bourbon, and vanilla extract. Add beaten eggs and egg yolk, whisk until fully mixed. Set aside.
- Cook Butter Mixture: Melt butter in a saucepan, stir in flour and cook for about 30 seconds. Whisk the butter mixture into the egg mixture until combined.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the filling over the pecans in the pie shell. Bake for 55 minutes until set. Cool on a wire rack for 4 hours.
- Cool and Serve: Slice and serve or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
Notes
- You can optionally serve the pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- For a nuttier flavor, toast the pecans in the oven before adding them to the pie crust.
