Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 4 tablespoons Ice water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Chopped mixed nuts (e.g., pecans, walnuts, almonds)
• 3 Large eggs
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Light corn syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

To make the crust, combine the all-purpose flour and salt in a medium mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture and cut it in with a pastry cutter or two forks until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Slowly add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough starts to come together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.

Step 5

Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 6

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Gently transfer the dough to the pan, pressing it into the corners and trimming any excess from the edges.

Step 7

Scatter the chopped mixed nuts evenly over the prepared pie crust.

Step 8

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, light corn syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 9

Pour the egg mixture over the nuts in the pie crust, ensuring the nuts are evenly distributed.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 11

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Step 12

Serve slices of this rich and decadent nut pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
