Default Pecan Pie recipe

Is there enough left to share? Polly (also with a wistful look)

"dealer83" Polly and all, my husband was asking me what I was doing when
I was
typing out my recipe. When I told him, he got this wistful look on
his face, so I knew a pie was in the making. I went out to the
kitchen and made one right then and there. We are lucky enough to get
a big box of pecans every year from our daughter, who lives in the
south. So...pecan pie was tonights dessert and I'm in a sugar
comatose state. A pin would make me pop. It was luscious, firm, not
runny, crunchy toasted pecans on top....now, aren't you all just ready
to make one? Donna

Default Pecan Pie recipe

That's funny! Last night I ate the last- very large- piece of pecan pie
that I had made a few days ago. Yeppers, I ate the whole pie all by
myself- and every single piece was knee deep in whipped cream, too!
Starting tomorrow I'm on a strict diet. LOL

I foresee a LOT of salads in my future for the next month or so..... And no
more pie crust for The HairyButt Gang, either.

Polly and all....there's 5 pieces left, first come first served but,
wear your snuggies and bring your snowshoes. About all there is to do
in this frozen north is eat in the winter time. I do believe that's
why hot dishes and pie are taken so seriously here! lol Donna

Well I'm not waiting for my mom to make her pie. I'm heading to the
store to get my own pecans. We do not have snow or even rain, but our
low temps have been lower than 35 for over 10 days now. Thanks for the
recipes everyone!

I will nip over. I have never tasted pecan pie and it was my 75th
birthday yesterday.

Default Pecan Pie recipe


Have to tell about one of my first pecan pies. Grandparents lived in
Arkansas and mailed us a box of pecans every year. I even used
Grandmothers recipe.
Pie looked lucious! Cut into it and the layers we pecans on top,
then crust, then filling!
Never figured out how I did that, and it has never happened again.
We ate it anyway and it was delicious.

Default Pecan Pie recipe

Most recipes seem to need Karo syrup. But since I live in a Karo-free
zone (Germany), I like this recipe. It has NEVER failed.

1 cup sugar (I sometimes use half and half brown and white)
2 beaten eggs
6 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk
1 cup pecans (I usually use about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup raisins (definitely optional! But this is really good using
dried cranberries or chopped candied ginger.)

Melt the butter in the milk. Spread nuts and fruit in the unbaked pie
shell (see below). Beat sugar and eggs into the milk mixture and pour
over the nuts/fruit. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. cool before
serving.

Pie crust:
6 tablespoons butter
1-2 tablespoons sugar (If you want to use this for e.g. a quiche,
leave out the sugar and give it a pinch of salt instead.)
1 cup flour (Place a tablespoon of cornstarch in the bottom of the cup
before measuring -makes a lighter pastry.)
Cut these ingredients together (or use a food processor) until it
resembles fine crumbs. Then add just enough cold water to hold it
together. The dough shouldn't be sticky. The amount of water depends
very much on humidity -sorry! But a spoonful is usually enough in my
humid climate.
Let the dough rest for half an hour before you roll it out.

The only recipe I tried didn't turn out. We need a tried and true recipe
if anyone has one.

To stay on topic, I'm making my husband a quilt. It's the first one I've
made him, but not the first time I've sewn for him This is the first
quilt I've made in two years. Been ho hum about sewing over that time.
I've only been mending. I feel good about this though and have bought
even more fabric to add to my "To Do" list.

I think I am the only one in the world that doesn't like
pecan pie. It might be the only pie I don't like. You
guys are going to have to eat my share and yours!
