Crust: 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour 1/2 tbsp. sugar 1/4 tsp. salt 1/2 cup cold butter, diced 3 tbsp plus additional ice water
Filling: 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup light corn syrup 1/4 cup melted butter 3 large eggs 3 tbsp. minced candied orange peel 4 tbsp. bourbon 1 tbsp. finely grated orange peel 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 cups toasted pecan halves
Directions
For Crust: Blend together flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add butter and pulse until coarse crumbs form. With processor running, gradually add water until dough forms. Gather dough into a ball and flatten into a disc. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour. Let dough soften slightly at room temperature. Roll dough to a 12 inch round and form into a 9 inch pie plate. Trim overhang , fold to create edge and crimp decoratively. Refrigerate crust 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line crust with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake crust 15 to 17 minutes until crust is set. Remove foil and weights and bake an additional 5 minutes until crust is lightly browned. Cool crust on rack while preparing filling.
For Filling: Whisk together sugar, corn syrup and melted butter in a large bowl. Whisk in eggs 1 at a time. Stir in candied peel, bourbon, grated peel, vanilla and pecans. Pour filling into crust. Bake about 50 minutes until center is set and edges are puffed. Cool pie on rack at least 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature.
