Servings: 8 People
Calories: 600kcal
Equipment
- 9 inch pie pan
Ingredients
- 2 cups Pecans
- 2 tablespoon Southern Comfort
- 1 pie crust for a 9" pie.
- 1 cup Corn syrup
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup Brown sugar packed
- ½ cup Granulated sugar
- ¼ cup Butter melted
- ¼ cup Southern Comfort
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Roughly chop the pecans.
- In a dry pan, toast pecans over medium heat until fragrant. Add 2 tablespoon Southern Comfort, continue cooking until absorbed.
- Remove from heat, allow to cool to room temp.
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- Line your pie pan with your prepared pie crust of choice. Flip the outer edge under, and crimp the edge as you see fit.
- Whisk together the corn syrup, eggs, sugars, butter, Southern Comfort, cornstarch, and salt until smooth and well incorporated. Add the cooled pecans, mix until well combined.
- Pour filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake pie for 30 minutes.
- At the 30 minute mark, place a piece of aluminum foil loosely over the pie - this will help prevent it from burning.
- Bake for another 30-35 minutes or so, until the pie is mostly set on the outside, with the center just a little bit jiggly.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature before serving. If not serving immediately, keep refrigerated after cooling.
Notes
Pie will be puffy when it comes out of the oven, on account of the eggs. It will settle and solidify as it cools.
