Pecan Pie Mini Bites Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix together the granulated sugar, corn syrup, maple syrup, butter, brown sugar, whiskey, vanilla, salt and eggs in a bowl.
• Divide the chopped pecans among the pie shells. Pour the syrup mixture over the top and put a whole pecan on top of each. Bake until just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place pecans on a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped.
• Mix sugar, eggs, light corn syrup, dark corn syrup, butter, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl; fold in pecans. Spoon 1/4 cup pecan mixture into each pie shell. Place pies on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pies are slightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, salt, vanilla, and bourbon whiskey in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer, then whisk mixture and boil for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
• Add eggs and whisk quickly to combine. Stir in pecans. Set aside until mixture thickens a bit and cools down, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Use the butter to generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
• Cut each croissant in half, then turn the halves and slice open like you're making a sandwich. Place each piece into a prepared muffin cup and press it down and into the sides to fit and line the cup. Remove any pieces that stick up over the edge of the muffin cup and patch those in where needed to cover the sides.
• Spoon the pecan filling evenly into the muffin cups, stirring between each spoonful to ensure you get an even amount of nuts and sauce. Use your fingers to press pecans into the cups and even out the tops so they don't burn. Clean up any syrup that dripped onto the pan.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes, with a pan on the rack underneath to catch any drips.
• Remove from the pan and let sit in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn each pie a bit, then lift out and place on a plate to continue cooling. Let cool completely before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Bake/toast pecans in single layer in a shallow pan 8 to 10 minutes or until toasted and fragrant.
• Stir together sugar and corn syrup in a medium bowl. Stir in pecan, eggs and next 3 ingredients.
• Spoon about 1 heaping tsp pecan mixture into each pastry shell (remember to keep stiring the mixture) and place on 2 large baking sheets.
• Bake at 350 for 20 to 22 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks and let cool completely (about 30 minutes). Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days (not sure how well they freeze; they don't last that long at my house).

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and pecans; set aside. Combine butter and eggs. Stir into brown sugar mixture. , Fill greased and floured miniature muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350° for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Immediately remove from pans to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• For pastry, in a bowl combine 1 c flour baking powder and salt. In a mixing bowl combine the 1/2 c butter cream cheese and 2 tsp sugar. Mix until well blended, stir in the flour mixture, press firmly into a ball with hands. Divide in half. Set aside 1 half. On a lightly floured surface roll out dough to a 1/8 inch thickness. Lightly spray 2 twelve cup mufin pans with nonstick spray. Cut out 12 2 1/4 inch rounds, I suggest using a cookie cutter or biscuit cutter. Press the rounds evenly into the bottoms and sides of the muffin pan cups. Repeat with remaining dough. Then refridgerate about 10 to 15 minute.
• Meanwhile , in a medium bowl beat the eggs slightly. Stir in the granulated sugar, corn syrup, bourbon, melted butter, and vanilla until blended. Spoon a heaping teaspoonfull of chopped pecans into each pastry lined cup. Top with the corn syrup mixture. Be careful not to put too much, if the cornsyrup mixture goes above the pastry it can stick and be difficult to remove after baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 20- 25 min, until lightly browned and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool , and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Unroll pie crust on lightly floured cutting board; cut into 12 (3-1/4-inch) rounds with biscuit cutter, rerolling scraps as necessary.
• Press pastry rounds gently onto bottoms and up sides of 12 muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray.
• Whisk egg with next 4 ingredients in medium bowl until blended. Stir in sugar. Add nuts and coconut; mix well.
• Spoon evenly into crusts, adding about 1 Tbsp. nut mixture to each crust.
• Bake 15 to 17 min. or until filling is hot and bubbly, and tops of pies are lightly browned. Cool 5 min.
