Black walnuts are abundant here in the Ozarks. My aunt gave me this recipe and I think it's one of the best pies I've ever tasted.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup chopped black walnuts
Directions:
1. Combine 1 tablespoon sugar and flour. Sprinkle into the pastry shell; set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, bring the corn syrup, brown sugar and remaining sugar just to a boil. Remove from the heat; stir in butter until melted. Let cool for 3 minutes.
3. Gradually stir eggs into hot mixture. Add walnuts and mix well. Pour into pastry shell. Bake at 325° for 55-60 minutes or until top is browned. Yield: 8 servings.
