Pecan Crunch Bourbon Sweet Potato Pie Recipes

PECAN CRUNCH BOURBON SWEET POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375F. Wrap sweet potatoes in aluminum foil and bake them until completely cooked through. (Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the sweet potatoes, but it will take from 30 to 60 minutes.) Remove cooked sweet potatoes from oven and cool for 10 minutes. Halve each potato crosswise, then insert small spoon between skin and flesh, and scoop flesh into medium bowl; discard skin. Repeat with remaining sweet potatoes; you should have about 2 cups of flesh after removing skin. While potatoes are still hot, add butter and mash with fork or wooden spoon; small lumps of potato should remain. Whisk together eggs, yolks, sugar, nutmeg and salt in medium bowl; stir in bourbon, molasses and vanilla, then whisk in milk. Gradually add egg mixture to sweet potatoes, whisking gently to combine. Heat partially baked pie crust in oven until warm, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle bottom of pie shell evenly with brown sugar. Pour sweet potato mixture into pie shell over brown sugar layer. Bake for 15 minutes more. Meanwhile, toss chopped pecans with cane syrup until evenly coated; set aside. Lower temperature to 350F, spread the pecan and cane syrup topping over the top of the pie, then return pie to the oven and continue baking until filling is set around edges but center jiggles slightly when shaken, about 40 minutes. Transfer pie to wire rack; cool to room temperature, about 2 hours, and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare my Favorite Pie Crust recipe. The recipe will make enough dough for two pie shells or one double-crusted pie. You will only need half of the dough for this recipe. Simply freeze the remaining dough for future use.
• Lightly dust your work area with flour and roll the dough into an 11-inch round. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the dough round in the prepared pan and trim the dough side. Using kitchen scissors, trim the edge of the dough, leaving ¾-inch of overhang. Crimp or flute the side of the dough and refrigerate or freeze for 30 minutes.
• While the pie shell pastry is chilling, preheat the oven to 325 degrees and make the two fillings. In a mixing bowl make the sweet potato filling by combining the mashed sweet potato, butter, vanilla extract, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt, egg yolk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer, beat on medium until smooth.
• In another mixing bowl prepare the pecan filling. Combine the remaining ¾ cup sugar, 2 eggs, melted butter, dark corn syrup, salt, cinnamon, and bourbon or vanilla extract. Using a handheld whisk, whisk until combined.
• Remove the lined pie pan from the refrigerator or freezer. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet pan. Spread the sweet potato pie filling evenly in the pie shell. Now sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the filling. Using a rubber or silicone spatula, transfer the corn syrup mixture over the pecans, making sure to evenly cover the pecans.
• Transfer the pie, on the sheet pan, to the oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. The pie should be firm on the top. If needed, bake for a few more minutes.
• Remove the pie from the oven and let cool completely, at least 2 hours. When ready to serve, prepare the whipped cream. Place the cream in a chilled bowl of a stand mixer. Using the whip attachment, whip the cream on medium high speed until soft peaks form. Reduce speed to medium and slowly add the confectioners' sugar and the orange liqueur. Whip until firm peaks form. It's your choice how to use the whipped cream. You can pile it on top of the pie or slice the pie and top each serving with a mound of that delicious whipped cream!
