It's easy to just SAY that this was the best pecan pie I have ever tasted, but I really mean it. The combo of different sized pecans made every bit super nutty. The crumbly crust was super firm, but fell to pieces when you bit it. And the goop wasn't too sweet at all, instead it was full of maple and bourbon flavor.

The recipe really takes the best from each of the top ten and delivers the ultimate pecan pie.

THE Most Average Best Pecan Pie RECIPE
Pie Crust:
244g All Purpose Flour
25g Pastry Flour
29g Sugar
3g Salt
167g of Cold Cubed Butter
0.5 Egg
55g of Ice Water
2g Apple Cider Vinegar

Mix together the flours, sugar, salt, and butter until the butter has broken into small little bits.

Then add the egg, water, and vinegar and mix till combined.
Press into a ball, then flatten into a disc inside of some plastic wrap and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
When ready, roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper until it is the size of your baking dish
Fill with pie weights and bake at 388F /198C for 4:42 and then remove the weights and bake for another 4:28.

The Filling:
3.5 Eggs
49g Maple Syrup
128g Light Corn Syrup
54g Dark Corn Syrup
2g of Salt
147g Brown Sugar
50g White Sugar
3g Vanilla extract
26g Milk
57g Melted Butter
6g Flour
6g Bourbon
0.1 Vanilla Pod
86g Raw Pecan Halves
86g Raw Pecans Roughly Chopped
44g Toasted Pecans Finely Diced

If you used melted butter, go ahead and combined everything together, but if you used room temp butter like I did, then preheat the mix till the butter melts before adding the Pecans.

Feel free to decorate your pie or not before going into the oven. If I made this again, I would use ADDITIONAL pecans to decorate and not pull from my total… but I like it extra nutty.

Cook at 425F/ 218C for 1.5 minutes, drop the oven temp to 350F /175F and cook for 45.5 to 54.5 minutes. For me… the average of 50 minutes actually worked out perfectly.

I hope you enjoy making this… if you’re brave and crazy enough to follow my recipe to the T, then please please please, let me know what you think. A few friends of mine agreed, this was the best pecan pie we have ever tasted.
