Almond Cream Pie Or Pecan Cream Pie Recipes

NO BAKE PECAN CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, milk, dry pudding mix, butter extract, and 2 cups toasted pecans (reserving 1/2 cup for garnish).
• Fold in whipped topping.
• Spread into prepared pie crust. I use a larger, 9 oz. crust, but sometimes the smaller, 6 oz. crusts are easier to find in stores. This can make two smaller 6 oz. pies.
• Refrigerate til set, at least 2 hours.
• If desired, garnish with additional whipped cream and remaining toasted pecans. Cut and serve.

BERTHA'S PECAN CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.)
• In the top of a double boiler, combine yolks, milk, 2/3 cup sugar, cornstarch and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 1 cup pecans. Pour filling into baked pie shell.
• In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Beat in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and gradually add 6 tablespoons white sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over pie, covering completely. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup ground pecans.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until meringue is delicately browned.

ALMOND PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• To prepare homemade pie crust, place flour in mixing bowl; add butter and cut in with pastry blender. Add salt and then add COLD water 1 Tablespoon at a time. Mix and toss ingredients together with a fork until dough ball forms. Place in plastic wrap or Ziploc baggie and put into the refrigerator while you make the filling.
• To prepare filling, whisk the eggs, brown sugar, maple syrup, melted butter, vanill and salt together in a mixing bowl.
• Whisk.
• Stir in the pecans and sliced almonds.
• Once filling is prepared, take the dough ball from the fridge and place on lightly floured surface. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the crust dough into a circle at least 12 inches in diameter and gently fold pie crust into quarters. Move the folded pie crust from the counter to the pie plate. Unfold in the pie plate. Pour filling into pie shell. Flute edges in your favorite design.
• Place pie crust shield over the top or use foil to make a shield to keep the crust edges from burning or turning dark brown while baking.
• Bake at 375 for 40-50 minutes, or until filling has set.
• Let cool completely on cooling rack. Refrigerate. It's easiest to slice pie when its cold!
• Serve cool with whipped cream or warm with vanilla bean ice cream. You'll have to imagine the dollop of whipped cream.
