Bourbon Cream Pie Recipes

DEEP-DISH MAPLE-BOURBON CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Toast pecans on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until fragrant and slightly darkened, about 10 minutes; let cool.
• Pulse pecans and 1 Tbsp. flour in a food processor until finely ground. Add granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, and remaining 1 cup plus 7 Tbsp. flour and pulse to combine. With the machine running, add butter, vinegar, and 2 Tbsp. cold water in a slow, steady stream and mix just until incorporated.
• Transfer mixture to a large bowl and press with your hands until a dough forms. Form into a 6" disc, then transfer to pie plate and press into bottom and up sides with a flat-bottomed measuring cup. Crimp edge with a floured fork, if desired, and freeze while you prepare the filling.
• Make the filling and assemble the pie:
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Cook maple syrup in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to about 1/2 cup, 8-10 minutes.
• Whisk eggs, brown sugar, flour, and salt in a large bowl until smooth. Whisk in cream, bourbon, cinnamon, and reduced maple syrup until combined.
• Heat butter over medium in a small saucepan, swirling pan occasionally, until nutty, dark brown, and most of the foam has subsided, about 5 minutes. Immediately whisk into maple syrup mixture.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper over dough and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edge is lightly golden, 10-15 minutes. Remove weights, then cover edge with a pie shield or foil to prevent overbrowning. Continue baking until center is golden brown, 5-10 minutes more.
• Pour filling into crust and bake pie until edge is set but center is still very jiggly, 40-45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool at least 2 hours (the center will set as pie cools).
• Serve the pie:
• Combine cream and yogurt in a large bowl. Scrape in vanilla seeds and reserve pod for another use, or add vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer on medium-low speed, beat until soft peaks form. Mound whipped cream in center of pie.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, mix 1 1/4 cups flour, the granulated sugar and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender, until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all water is absorbed and dough sticks together. On lightly floured surface, shape dough into a ball. Flatten to 1/2-inch thickness, rounding and smoothing edges. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate 1 hour.
• On lightly floured surface, roll pastry, using floured rolling pin, into 11-inch round. Fold pastry into quarters; place in 9-inch glass pie plate. Unfold pastry and ease into pie plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side and being careful not to stretch pastry. Fold and roll edge of dough under, even with plate; flute edge. Cover; refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Line pastry with foil; fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake 12 minutes. Remove weights and foil; bake 3 to 4 minutes longer or until bottom is golden brown.
• In medium bowl, mix all filling ingredients just until blended. Pour into partially baked crust. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes or until golden brown and center is set. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 2 hours. Garnish with whipped cream.
