Caramel Macadamia Pie Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Add the cream, butter, and brown sugar to a pan and boil two minutes.
• 2. Place the macadamia nuts into the pastry-lined pie pan and pour the caramel sauce over it.
• 3. Bake 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until the pastry is lightly brown. Use your favorite pastry. I fold the pastry over the top to make a rustic tart. The baking will thicken the caramel sauce, so don't boil it more than two minutes before putting in pie shell. You may want to make miniature pies, as it can be a bit tricky to cut and serve.

Steps:

• Unroll crust and place in a 9-in. pie plate; flute edge and set aside. In a small bowl, beat the eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter and vanilla until combined. Stir in the nuts. Pour into crust. , Bake at 325° for 50-55 minutes or until center is set and top is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix together the dark corn syrup, sugar, and eggs. Stir in macadamia nuts and melted butter. Pour into pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. If necessary, cover edge with foil to prevent overbrowning.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line the bottom of a 10-inch removable bottom tart pan with a circle of parchment paper.
• In an electric mixer, beat together all the crust ingredients until smooth and creamy. Pour the batter into the prepared tart pan and bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust is set.
• For the filling, combine the butter, agave nectar, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. The mixture should reach 250°F on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream, nuts, and vanilla extract. Pour into the prebaked crust and return to the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
• Important note: place the tart pan on a baking sheet before placing in the oven. This will prevent the caramel from dripping inside your oven and make it easier to remove the hot tart from the oven.
• Cool the tart to room temperature, then refrigerate for 4 or more hours. It will look a bit gooey at first, but the caramel hardens when refrigerated. When the tart has set, carefully cut out wedges, remembering to peel off the parchment paper. This tart is difficult to remove as a whole from the pan because of the hardened caramel topping, so you'll need to cut it into individual pieces to serve. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
