Southern Pecan Pie with Spice Crust
 
 SPICE CRUST
 1 cup of flour
 1/4 cup of sugar
 1 pinch of salt
 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg
 1/4 teaspoon of cloves
 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
 1 large Egg
 PIE FILLING
 1 cup of dark corn syrup
 3/4 cup of sugar
 6 tablespoons of butter
 3 large Eggs
 1 Pinches salt
 2 tablespoons of Bourbon
 2 cups of pecan halves or piece

For the crust, combine dry ingredients in bowl of food processor and pulse several times to mix. Add butter and pulse to a fine powder. Add egg and pulse until dough forms a ball that rotates on blade. Press dough into a disk, wrap and chill. For filling, combine corn syrup and sugar in saucepan and stir to mix. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, without stirring. Remove from heat, add butter and allow to melt. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs to break up and whisk in salt and Bourbon. Whisk in syrup and butter mixture, being careful not to over mix. Allow to rest while rolling dough. Preheat oven to 350ºF. and set a rack in the lower third. On a floured surface, roll the dough and line a 9-inch Pyrex pie pan, fluting the rim of the crust. Arrange pecans in an even layer in pie shell. Carefully skim top of filling and pour over pecans. With the back of fork, press pecans into filling so that all have been immersed in it. Bake for about 45 minutes, until crust is baked through and filling is firm in center. Cool on a rack. Store pie at a cool room temperature or refrigerate. If refrigerated, bring to room temperature before serving.
