    List of Ingredients




    Maple Bourbon Pecan Pie


    All-purpose flour, for dusting

    Pâté Brisée
    1 cup sugar
    4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
    4 large whole eggs
    1 cup plus 2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
    1/2 cup pure maple syrup
    2 tablespoons bourbon or dark rum
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    1 1/2 cups (5 1/4 ounces) pecan halves
    2 large egg yolks
    2 tablespoons heavy cream
    Whipped cream (optional)

    Recipe




    1. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a 9-inch pie tin, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold overhang under evenly. Using a paring knife, carefully cut out leaves from scraps of dough. Gently score leaves with the back of the knife to create veins. Place leaves on a baking sheet. Transfer lined pie tin and leaves to refrigerator. Chill for at least 30 minutes

    2. Heat oven to 400°. In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, butter, 4 whole eggs, corn syrup, maple syrup, bourbon, and vanilla. Fold in half the pecan halves. Pour filling into pie shell; arrange remaining pecan halves on top of pie.

    3. Score the outer rim of pie. Beat 1 egg yolk, and brush over hatch marks. Adhere the leaves to the dough in a decorative pattern. Chill the pie for 30 minutes. Mix 2 tablespoons heavy cream with remaining egg yolk. Brush the egg glaze over the leaves, and transfer pie to the oven.

    4. Bake 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°. Bake until a knife tip comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    Makes 1 nine-inch pie
