Ingredients for Apple Butterscotch Macadamia Pie

  • 2 large eggs
  • Light Corn Syrup
  • Tart Apples
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • Macadamia Nuts
  • Nestl Toll House Butterscotch Flavored Morsels
  • Unbaked 9 Inch Pie Shell

How to Make Apple Butterscotch Macadamia Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup light corn syrup, 4 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 4 medium), ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  4. Stir in 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts and 1 cup butterscotch chips.
  5. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly jiggly. A knife inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
  7. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
  8. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
