Number Of Ingredients 9

All-purpose flour, for surface
1/2 recipe Pate Sucree for Walnut Pie
4 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup corn syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces walnuts, toasted and chopped (1 1/4 cups)
Whipped Cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll pate sucree into an 11-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under dough so edges are flush with rim, and crimp edges. Lightly pierce bottom of dough with a fork. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir eggs, sugar, corn syrup, vanilla, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined. Stir in walnuts, and spread mixture evenly over dough in dish.
  • Bake, rotating halfway through, until filling is just set in the center and crust is golden brown, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Let cool completely in pie dish on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream.
