Browned Butter Pecan Pie1/2 cup butter 3/4 cup light corn syrup 1/4 cup honey 1 cup granulated sugar 3 large eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup chopped pecans 9-inch pie shell, unbaked Real whipped cream Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Over low to medium heat, cook butter in a saucepan, watching closely but not stirring, until golden brown, about 5 to 8 minutes. Do not burn. Pour browned butter into bowl and set aside. In food processor, blend corn syrup, honey, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and salt until smooth. Add browned butter; blend again. Add pecans and process with just a few quick on-off-pulses. Pour mixture into pie shell. Bake at 435 degrees for 10 minutes; lower heat to 325 degrees F; bake another 40 minutes. NOTE: center of pie will still seem a bit liquid when removed from oven; it sets up further as it cools. Let cool completely. Serve with a generous topping of real whipped cream.
