Claire Saffitz and Brad Leone know that after turkey and stuffing, a Thanksgiving meal is judged on its pies. Guests, all of whom have saved room in their stomachs for dessert, will ask: ‘What type of pies did the hosts provide? What was the quality of the crust? Was this pumpkin pie pumpkin-y enough?’ Claire and Brad want you to pass your guests’ pie grading, so they’ve endeavored to make the perfect Thanksgiving pie. Check out the final recipe here: https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/pecan-rye-pumpkin-pie And find all of the Making Perfect recipes here: https://www.bonappetit.com/gallery/absolutely-perfect-thanksgiving-menu Imagine a pumpkin pie with pecan pieâs best featureâobviously, the candied nut topping. Now spike the custard with rye whiskey, up the flavor of the crust with rye flour, and voilĂ : pecan-rye pumpkin pie. We use Libbyâs canned pumpkin because itâs reliably consistent, with an ideal water content, and few variations in flavor (and no, weâre not paid to say that). The egg wash added during the blind bake serves as a moisture-fighting barrierâa seal-tight guarantee that the bottom crust wonât get soggy. The rye flour will make the crust look darker than your standard pie dough. If it starts getting too dark while baking with the custard filling, tent it with a ring of foil.
