Best Orange Pecan Pie Recipes

MIXED BERRY PIE WITH PECAN-ORANGE LATTICE CRUST

Steps:

• Finely grind pecans in processor. Add 2 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, grated orange peel and salt and process until well blended. Add butter and process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Using on/off turns, blend in enough water by tablespoonfuls to form moist clumps. Gather dough together and divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten into disks; wrap each disk in plastic and chill 1 hour. (Dough can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated. Let dough soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.)
• Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Combine 1 1/3 cups sugar, orange marmalade, cornstarch, orange peel and allspice in large bowl. Add all berries and toss gently.
• Roll out larger dough disk on floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 1 1/2 inches.
• Roll out remaining dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Cut dough into fourteen 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Mound filling in crust. Arrange 7 dough strips atop filling, spacing evenly. Form lattice by placing remaining dough strips atop and at right angle to first 7 strips. Trim ends of dough strips even with overhang of bottom crust. Fold strip ends and overhang under, pressing to seal and forming high-standing rim. Brush lattice with egg glaze. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Line baking sheet with foil; place on bottom of oven under rack to catch any drippings. Place pie on rack and bake until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles thickly, covering crust edge with aluminum foil if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer pie to rack to cool. Serve pie slightly warm or at room temperature.

PECAN-ORANGE BAKLAVA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Bring honey, cinnamon sticks, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup water to a boil in medium heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium and continue to boil until syrup is reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 15-18 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, stir in bourbon, and let cool.
• Meanwhile, spread pecans on large rimmed baking sheet and toast until golden brown, 13-15 minutes. Let cool. Transfer nuts to a food processor. Add ground cinnamon, 1 tsp. orange zest, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar and pulse until coarsely chopped.
• Place stack of phyllo sheets on a work surface. Keep any phyllo you're not currently working with covered under a layer of plastic wrap topped with a slightly damp kitchen towel. Using base of springform pan as a guide, and starting at edge of phyllo, carefully cut out 20 (9") circles, leaving as much phyllo remaining as possible. Cover phyllo circles. Using base of pan as a guide, cut remaining phyllo into 20 (4 1/2") half-circles.
• Insert base into pan and secure the latch. Brush base with butter. Place 1 phyllo circle in pan and brush generously with butter. Top with 2 half-circles to create a full circle, brush with butter. Top with full circle, brush again. Top with 2 more half-circles at a 90° angle from the first half-circle layer, brush with butter. Top with a full circle, and brush again. You should have 5 layers of pastry (full circle - half-circles - full circle - half circles - full circle), with butter spread between each layer. Spread one-fifth of nut mixture over phyllo. Repeat layering 4 more times. Top with the 5 remaining phyllo circles; brush top with butter.
• Using a sharp knife, score the top layer (do not cut through to bottom of pan) to divide into 4 quadrants. Working with 1 quadrant at a time, make 1 straight cut to divide the quadrant into 2 even wedges. Make 4 more straight cuts (2 each on either side of, and parallel to the quadrant division line), spacing evenly apart. Now working within each wedge, make 2 evenly-spaced cuts parallel to the outside edge of the quadrant, connecting at points with the previous cuts to form a diamond pattern. Repeat with the remaining quadrants to create a starburst pattern. Transfer pan to a rimmed baking sheet and bake until phyllo is golden brown, about 45 minutes.
• Spoon cooled syrup over hot baklava in 4 additions. Place orange curls on top. Let cool completely in pan. Remove springform ring and cut baklava along the scored lines.
• Do Ahead
• Syrup can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Baklava can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and store at room temperature.

ORANGE-PECAN PIE

Steps:

• In medium bowl, mix flour, 1 tablespoon orange peel and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut in 1/2 cup shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
• Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.

Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate. Cut scraps of rolled pastry with tiny star-shaped cookie cutter. Sprinkle cutouts with sugar; press on pastry edge.
