Pecan Pie

November 28-29, 2015


Our Thanksgiving hosts listed to a greater extent than or less suggested contributions inwards advance of the feast, as well as I predictably pounced on the dessert pie option. I reckoned I'd live able to cater to the vegan as well as gluten-free invitees; unfortunately they ended upwards declining for diverse reasons, but I forged on amongst a vegan recipe regardless.

The recipe comes from Hell Yeah It's Vegan!, which confidently touts it equally the best pecan pie. I liked that it used apple tree puree as well as arrowroot inwards the filling, trusted that corn syrup would scope a glossy sheen, as well as was intrigued past times the crumbled crackers that presumably add together inwardness to the filling.


Crackerless, I blended upwards to a greater extent than or less breadcrumbs instead as well as noticed a few staying stubbornly lumpy inwards the caramel filling. Speaking of which, gosh this filling was sweet. The volume of it is caster sugar, corn syrup as well as apple tree puree, which foremost out pale as well as crystalline, but bake into a really chewy chocolate-brown binder. This pie was virtually a praline. With an ultra-crumbly crust it wasn't much of a looker, but the pecans toasted upwards nicely, as well as a dollop of kokosnoot yoghurt went a long agency inwards toning downwards the sweetness.


The solid dessert tradition is a pumpkin cheesecake, tall as well as creamy. Meanwhile, the verbalize of the tables was the pistachio pudding 'salad', stoking much nostalgia for the American attendees as well as winning a few novel fans.

Turn the mixture onto a canvas of plastic twine as well as select it together into a ball; twine it all upwards as well as refrigerate for at to the lowest degree thirty minutes, but mayhap fifty-fifty overnight.

Preheat an oven to 220°C.

Retrieve the pastry as well as give away it on a bench, but hold the twine there. Place to a greater extent than or less other slice of plastic twine on transcend of the dough ball as well as curlicue the pastry apartment to jibe a pie dish.  When it's big enough, line off the transcend plastic canvas as well as gently flip the pastry into that pie dish. Remove the 2nd plastic sheet, as well as cut as well as field the pastry equally needed. Prick holes inwards the pastry amongst a fork, trouble it amongst pie weights (baking newspaper filled amongst dried chickpeas, inwards my case), as well as bake for merely five minutes.

When the pastry is done, accept it out of the oven as well as laid upwards it aside. Remove the pie weights. Turn the oven downwards to 160°C.

Begin on the filling. Melt the margarine inwards a saucepan over medium heat. Add the pecans, stirring them until they're lightly toasted as well as fragrant. Turn off the heat.
