Tipsy Raisin Pecan Pie

"I adopted this from the Recipezaar account. The original was called Oh So Good Pie. It called for golden raisins but I use regular ones. I haven't made the Spiked Cream yet but maybe will the next time :)"

directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Toss together raisins, pecans and flour in a medium size bowl until raisins and pecans are well coated with flour.
  • Beat together butter and brown sugar in a large bowl until well blended (I use my stand mixer).
  • Add divided egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Add 2 tablespoons whiskey, vinegar, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice; blend well. Stir in raisin & nut mixture and set aside.
  • Beat egg whites and salt in a medium size bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until soft peaks form (I use my stand mixer for this also).
  • Fold whites into raisin & nut mixture. Pour into pie crust.
  • Bake for 35 minutes or until slightly puffed and set.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature with Spiked Whipped Cream, if desired.
  • To make Spiked Whipped Cream: Beat together one cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons whiskey in a medium size bowl until soft peaks form.

  1. Forget the 'Tipsy' 'cause I didn't make the pie that way, & it STILL came out great! I did use golden raisins, since I didn't want the stronger taste of the dark ones to overwhelm the pecans! I also didn't make the spiked topping, but rather topped it off with some frogen yogurt, & it all turned out to be a VERY NICE dessert! Thanks for sharing!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have a degree in archaeology from a small Ohio college and I work for the Ohio History Connection. My passions are art, music, books, food, history, and cats/animal welfare. I also love photography. I have a 1,000 (plus) piece collection of vintage flower pins from the 1960's, hence the username ha. I also have small collections of vintage butterfly pins, vintage tablecloths, and vintage glass Christmas ornaments. (Can you tell I love vintage?) I took a trip to the Netherlands in March 2006 and fell in love! I doubt it will happen but if I ever have the opportunity I would love to live there.
