Hi everyone, welcome to my kitchen where everything is scratch made and home preserved
0:09
I'm Jenny and today we are making my mom's pecan pie. And today's video is brought to you by York Pecan Company
0:22
I get all my pecans from York Pecan Company. They are the best
0:27
They have a wide variety. These are the pecan pieces, so they're already chopped up, which I appreciate
0:33
And that's what I like to use in my pecan pie. Now, you can get the pecan halves that are big and beautiful and decorate your pie and make it beautiful
0:44
I find it a little bit harder to eat like that, so I like mine already chopped, so that's why I make my pie
0:49
But you can get them either way. They also offer a wide variety of different things
0:53
You can get chocolate and caramel pecans, turtles. You can get these honey roasted pecans, a Cajun mix
1:03
They are all so good. So if you haven't tried York Pecan Company yet
1:08
I'm going to put the information in the description box below for you. I urge you to get your holiday box
1:15
So we're going to make my mom's pecan pie today, but I'm not going to make it plain
1:20
It is going to have bourbon and chocolate in it. My mom does not put that in hers
1:26
But I'm changing it up a little bit. So let's get started
1:30
My handwritten recipes falling apart. In 1989, I was pregnant with my first child, my daughter, and I had insomnia
1:41
I stayed up most of the night writing my mom's recipes out
1:46
So I didn't have to ask her every time I needed one of her recipes. First thing I'm going to do is crack four eggs in my bowl
2:02
You're going to need one pie crust, a nine inch pie crust
2:11
It is one of my daughter birthdays today Or not today It was Monday but we celebrating today So we having pecan pie She so ready for the holidays She requested pecan pie instead of cake
2:26
I can't disagree with her there. Okay, got my four eggs
2:38
We need one cup of corn syrup. So I'm going to pour it in my cup. FYI, I highly disagree with the spraying your cup down
2:47
I hate that cooking spray. It's like, here, let's just throw some extra chemicals into your baking
2:54
You already got enough in here with the stuff you're using. I keep my corn syrup in here because my husband has a guy, a corn syrup guy, so he gets it in bulk for me
3:11
For all my Christmas baking. One cup of corn syrup
3:23
And then I just use a little spatula rather than spraying my cup
3:41
I need a fourth a cup of butter. Okay, so I'm just going to put my half a stick of butter in here in my measuring cup and melt it in the microwave
3:58
I also should get my oven going. I need a half a tablespoon of flour, so a teaspoon and a half
4:11
Alright, so here's my quarter cup of butter. I am also going to put a quarter cup of bourbon in here
4:28
If you don like bourbon and you don drink it you don want to use it for whatever reason just leave it out You don have to it just leave it out I love the bourbon flavor Use whatever brand you like
4:50
I'm going to use chocolate chips for my chocolate. I'll tell you the reason. Chocolate chips have stabilizer in them
4:57
chocolate bars don't so if you chop up chocolate bars which you can do sometimes
5:04
the pie is really gooey it doesn't set up quite as much I'm gonna use a half a
5:09
cup of chocolate chip I have had it be a little bit too gooey using chopped bar chocolate so I'm gonna
5:18
use chocolate chips just so for stabilization and then we need two cups
5:25
of pecans. So you can do chopped pecans, pecan halves, whatever you like. I like them like this
5:37
I probably should order another pound of chopped pecans for all my holiday baking
5:54
Okay, and then your unbaked pie shell
6:09
I'm actually going to put it on a cookie sheet as well. Easier to take out of the oven and put it in the oven on a cookie sheet
6:24
And I'm just going to pour it in. Pecans will float right to the top
6:34
And the bourbon will leave just that slight bit of the alcohol burn off with that little
6:45
bourbon flavor, which I love. This is going to bake for one hour at 350 I going to put it right in the middle rack here and set my timer this time
7:08
Oh, before I let you go, I wanted to let you know that if you really don't like
7:19
bourbon but you do like Kahlua you could use Kahlua instead which also turns out
7:23
very well I use that I alternate sometimes I make it with bourbon sometimes
7:27
I make it with Kahlua sometimes I just leave it plain it's completely up to you
7:32
but Kahlua and chocolate works really well together as well also pie crust you
7:39
can use pre-made pie crust or you can make your own I choose to make my own
7:44
because I'm cheap I don't like to go spend extra money on stuff I know I can
7:49
make, so if you are interested, I will leave my video on how to make pie crust in the description
7:55
box below for you. It is much easier than you think it is if you have never made it or if you're
8:02
afraid of pie crust. This is a much cheaper alternative and better than going and buying it
8:07
I am all about saving money, so I pretty much do everything from scratch because it's cheaper
8:14
It costs less per pie crust. It's like cents on the dollar for pie crust as opposed to purchasing it
8:22
Okay, here is our pie. It is done. It is gorgeous. It smells amazing. It's going to taste even more amazing
8:36
