Ingredients
1 mini pie crust recipe
1 cup toasted pecans
1 1/2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
Pinch of salt
3/4 cups brown rice syrup
2 eggs
2 tsp bourbon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
Make one recipe mini pie crust, then cut out and fit 6 circles into the muffin tin, making sure that there are no air bubbles on the bottom or sides of the pan. Chill for 30 minutes while you make your filling.
Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat the butter in a bowl until creamy. Add the brown sugar, flour, and salt. Mix until combined, then blend in the syrup. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the bourbon and the vanilla and mix until completely incorporated. Sprinkle the cooled pecans into the chilled shells . Pour the custard mixture over the pecans, filling each cup up almost all the way to the edge. Bake in oven for 20 minutes, then rotate and bake for 5-10 minutes, removing when they are very well browned.
