Bourbon Orange Pecan Pie Recipes

CHOCOLATE-DRIZZLED ORANGE AND BOURBON PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Place flour, orange peel, baking powder and salt into a food processer, drop in shortening cubes. Pulse to break into large pea size pieces.
• Whisk the egg and vinegar together. Pour through the feed tube. Continue pulsing until mixture becomes raggedy. Add 2-4 tablespoons ice water a little at a time while pulsing machine bringing the mixture into a ball. Don't add too much or it will be mushy!
• Take the top of the processor off and the blade, knead the dough together while in the bowl. It should stick together forming a dough. If it is too dry add 1 tablespoon water at a time until it forms a dough. Wrap in plastic, refrigerate for 1-2 hours or overnight.
• Roll pastry between two lightly floured pieces of wax paper. Cut them to approx. 12" lengths. Peel back every few rolls to allow the pastry to spread without touching the dough. Flip and continue peeling, flipping and sprinkling lightly with flour, until you have achieved the size of the pie plate, with a generous 1" overhang.
• Peel back one layer of wax paper and place the pie plate upside down onto the dough. Place your hand under the wax paper and flip the dough into the pie plate. Peel the sheet off. Cut a 1-inch overhand around the dough. Save or freeze any scraps.
• Roll the overhang under neatly. Using two fingers pinch the dough to achieve a decorative look. Dock the pastry (pierce with a fork) to allow steam to escape.
• Place first 8 ingredients into the stand mixer and blend well on medium high. Add the eggs and mix together to incorporate, just until blended, otherwise the pie will rise and fall.
• Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the pie dough evenly. Place flat side down, if you can.
• Stir the filling to incorporate the ingredients and pour over the nuts, making sure you coat every nut. This will add a shine and sugary crunch to the finished product as some will float.
• Bake in a preheated 350ºF oven for 40-50 minutes or until golden on top. Cool to room temperature
• Place 2 ounces 90% dark chocolate + 2 tablespoons So Delicious Dairy Free Vanilla Coconut Creamer in a ramekin. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir to melt. If it doesn't, microwave for another 30 seconds. Drizzle over cooled Pecan Pie. Allow it to dry and set for approximately 1 hour.

BOURBON PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Add the flour, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a food processor, or a large bowl if using a pastry blender. Pulse or whisk until the mixture is combined.
• Add the butter and pulse until most of the butter is broken into pea-size pieces, about 15 pulses. There will be some larger pieces of butter, and that's a good thing. If using a pastry blender, blend the butter until it's pea size.
• Add the cold water and vinegar to a cup and pour the liquid over the crumbly flour-butter mixture. Pulse until it looks like tiny clumps (like space dots ice cream), and there are no large pockets of flour. If using a pastry blender, use a large rubber spatula for this step, folding until no large pockets of flour remain.
• Tip the mixture onto your work surface and use a light touch to gather the dough together and pat it down until it's about 1 inch thick. Fold the dough in half, then pat it back down to a 1-inch block. Repeat twice, then pat and gather the dough into 2 round discs, smoothing the sides so they aren't dry and crumbly. Wrap the discs tightly in plastic and let them rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, and up to 3 days.
• When ready to par-bake the pie crust, preheat oven to 350°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of pie dough to an 11-inch circle, and transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate. Fit the dough into the pie plate, trimming any edge overhang that's greater than 1 inch.
• Prick the dough all over with the tines of a fork. Fit a piece of aluminum foil or parchment paper on the crust, leaving enough overhang so that you use the edges to lift it out later. (I like to use foil because I can easily cover the edges to prevent them from cooking too quickly, but parchment paper works, too.) Fill with pie weights or dried beans so the dough holds its shape and doesn't puff up.
• Bake on the middle rack until the bottom of the crust is dried out, about 20 minutes. You know it's ready if, when you lift out the foil or parchment, it doesn't stick. Carefully remove the pie crust from the oven by sliding it out and holding it from the bottom, so that you don't disturb the sides or edges of the crust (best to use two oven mitts). Carefully remove the parchment paper or foil and the pie weights or beans. Set the pan on a cooling rack for the crust to cool.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, cornmeal, vanilla, and salt.
• Combine the cane syrup, sugars, and bourbon in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Use a wooden spoon or whisk to stir continually. When the syrup starts to boil, cook an additional 2 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat.
• Use one hand to continually whisk the egg mixture and use the other hand to slowly pour one-third of the hot syrup into the egg mixture. Continually whisking tempers the eggs so they can be heated without scrambling. Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan with the syrup, continuing to whisk constantly. Stir in the pecans and set aside for 30 minutes to let the syrup mixture cool.
• If you've turned the oven off, preheat to 350° and place a rack in the middle of the oven.
• When the syrup is at room temperature, pour it into the par-baked pie crust and bake until the center of the pie is just set and doesn't jiggle, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes.
• Remove the pie from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours so the filling can firm up. Slice and serve.
