Vanilla Praline Pumpkin Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place pre-baked pie shell on a lined baking sheet to catch any spills.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purees and sour cream. Whisk in the brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and flour.
• Add the eggs and whisk until smooth, then whisk in the buttermilk, half and half, and vanilla bean paste.
• Pour filling into pie crust. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 50 - 60 minutes, or until the center of the pie is just set (no longer jiggly).
• Remove the pie from the oven, but leave the oven on.
• In a small bowl, combine all the topping ingredients. Very gently spoon the pecan praline topping over the top of the pie. Do not press.
• Return to the oven and bake for another 20-25 minutes until the top is set and golden.
• Let pie cool to room temperature. Serve with lightly sweetened whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:

• Make the dough: Pulse the flour, cookies and salt in a food processor until the cookies are finely ground. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Drizzle in 1/4 cup ice water and pulse until the dough begins to come together. Turn out into a 9-inch glass pie plate (not deep dish) and press into the bottom and up the sides about 1/4 inch above the rim. Pierce all over with a fork and chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the crust with foil, then fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges are golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue baking until the crust is golden all over, 10 to 15 more minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
• Make the filling: Whisk the pumpkin, cream, sugar, eggs, liqueur, nutmeg, vanilla and salt in a bowl. Pour into the crust and bake until the edges are set but the center still quivers, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
• Meanwhile, make the praline: Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and brush with vegetable oil. Stir the sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, swirling the pan but not stirring, until amber, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the almonds and salt. Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it as thinly as possible with a rubber spatula. Cool completely.
• Coarsely chop or break the praline and sprinkle over the pie right before serving.

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Make the filling: Place all filling ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well with a wire whisk. Pour filling into prebaked piecrust. Bake for 15 minutes and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue to bake for an additional 50 to 55 minutes. To test for doneness, stick a toothpick in the center; if it comes out clean, the pie is done.
• Cool and then chill before serving. To serve, top each slice with a dollop of low carb whipped cream.
• With an electric mixer on high, whip the heavy cream just until frothy. Then add in the sugar substitute and vanilla extract and continue to whip on high until peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, or cream will break. Transfer to a pastry bag or just spoon onto pie.

Using your fingers ( or a potato masher), quickly work cold, cubed butter into flour mixture (some butter pieces will be the size of oat flakes; some will be the size of peas). Create a well in mixture; pour in cold buttermilk. Using a fork, bring dough together. Try to moisten all the flour bits. Add a bit more buttermilk if necessary (you want mixture to be shaggy and moist but not outwardly wet).
• on a lightly floured work surface dump out dough mixture. Gently knead into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 1 hour.
• On a well floured surface roll crust 1/2 inch thick and about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer to a pie pan. Trim edge almost even with the edge of pan. Fold edges under; crimp with fingers or a fork. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 30 minutes and a max of 3 hours.
