BOURBON-PECAN PIE

Recipe courtesy of Pam's Midwest Kitchen Korner

Ingredients:

Crust for one 9” pie*

¾ cup granulated sugar

1½ cups dark corn syrup

½ teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons flour

3 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

2 tablespoons bourbon (I use Maker’s Mark)

3 tablespoons melted butter

2 cups pecans

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a hand mixer, combine sugar, syrup, salt, flour, and eggs, mixing well.

Stir in remaining ingredients and pour into unbaked pie shell.

Line pie crust edge with foil, if needed to prevent excessive browning.

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out relatively clean.

Remove from oven and place on cooling rack, allowing pie to rest for about 3 hours to set.
