Pecan Pie recipe
nice to be in good company. I like pecans and walnuts but don't like them
in pie. good luck at the doctors office. Taria "Butterflywings" wrote in message ... Move over, you aren't alone. I can't EAT Pecans or Walnuts. Butterfly (off for another Dr visit) "Taria" wrote in message ... I think I am the only one in the world that doesn't like pecan pie. It might be the only pie I don't like. You guys are going to have to eat my share and yours! Taria "Roberta" Roberta@Home wrote in message ... Most recipes seem to need Karo syrup. But since I live in a Karo-free zone (Germany), I like this recipe. It has NEVER failed. 1 cup sugar (I sometimes use half and half brown and white) 2 beaten eggs 6 tablespoons butter 1/4 cup milk 1 cup pecans (I usually use about 1 1/2 cups) 1/2 cup raisins (definitely optional! But this is really good using dried cranberries or chopped candied ginger.) Melt the butter in the milk. Spread nuts and fruit in the unbaked pie shell (see below). Beat sugar and eggs into the milk mixture and pour over the nuts/fruit. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. cool before serving. Pie crust: 6 tablespoons butter 1-2 tablespoons sugar (If you want to use this for e.g. a quiche, leave out the sugar and give it a pinch of salt instead.) 1 cup flour (Place a tablespoon of cornstarch in the bottom of the cup before measuring -makes a lighter pastry.) Cut these ingredients together (or use a food processor) until it resembles fine crumbs. Then add just enough cold water to hold it together. The dough shouldn't be sticky. The amount of water depends very much on humidity -sorry! But a spoonful is usually enough in my humid climate. Let the dough rest for half an hour before you roll it out.

We need a tried and true recipe if anyone has one. To stay on topic, I'm making my husband a quilt. It's the first one I've made him, but not the first time I've sewn for him This is the first quilt I've made in two years. Been ho hum about sewing over that time. I've only been mending. I feel good about this though and have bought even more fabric to add to my "To Do" list. |
