Pecan pie is my favorite pie. And since I love cocnut too, I started adding it to my pecan pie recipe and it rocks. This recipe can be used for pies or for filling pastries.
The Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup corn syrup (light or dark, up to you)
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup coconut
- 1 ready made pie crust
The Rundown:
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- spray pie plate (9") with cooking spray, lay down piecrust
- in medium saucepan, mix sugar, corn syrup, butter, water and cornstarch
- stir well until just boiling, remove from heat
- in mixing bowl, beat eggs until frothy
- add vanilla, salt, pecans and coconut
- slowly mix in sugar mixture, stir well.
- pour into piecrust, bake 45-50 min, til center is set
- cool completely before serving
**-If youre going to use it to fill pastries, bake JUST the filling in a well greased 9" round baking pan at 350F for 40 min, stir well and then fill your pastries and bake according to pastry directions.**
