Description

Maple Bourbon Pecan Pie is a delicious dessert that combines the rich flavors of maple syrup and bourbon with crunchy pecans.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons bourbon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups pecan halves
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the Pie Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the mixture forms a ball. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit your pie pan. Place the crust in the pan and crimp the edges. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
  3. Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the maple syrup, brown sugar, eggs, bourbon, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined. If you prefer a thicker filling, add cornstarch and mix thoroughly.
  4. Add Pecans: Stir in the pecan halves until evenly distributed.
  5. Fill the Crust: Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, ensuring the pecans are evenly spread.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. You may need to cover the edges with foil to prevent over-browning.
  7. Cool: Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours to allow it to set completely.
