Mixed Nut āNā Fig Pie
- Pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches)
- 1/2 cup chopped dried figs
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup corn syrup
- 3 eggs
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1-1/2 cups deluxe mixed nuts
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon orange marmalade
- Line a 9-in. pie plate with pastry; trim and flute edges. Line pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450u0b0 for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 300u0b0.
- In a small saucepan, combine figs and water. Cook and stir over low heat until water is absorbed. Remove from the heat; stir in marmalade. In a large bowl, combine brown sugar and cornstarch. Add the corn syrup, eggs, butter, vanilla and fig mixture; stir in nuts. Pour into crust.
- Bake at 300u0b0 for 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until set. Cover edges with foil during the last 30 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack.
- In a small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add sugar and marmalade; beat until soft peaks form. Serve with pie. Refrigerate leftovers.
