Black Bear Pie
- FOR THE CRUST:
- 1 cup Raw, Unsalted Walnuts
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- FOR THE CARAMEL:
- 1/4 cups Granulated Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Water
- 1/4 cups Peanut Butter
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- FOR THE JAM:
- 1 cup Fresh Blueberries
- 1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
- FOR THE PEANUTS:
- 1/4 cups Bittersweet Chocolate, Melted
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- 3/4 cups Unsalted Shelled Peanuts
- FOR THE HONEYCOMB CANDY:
- 1/4 cups Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Water
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- For the crust:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- In a food processor puree the walnuts and honey until the mixture is soft and almost dough-like. Place the walnut mixture in a medium bowl and add the graham cracker crumbs.
- Using your hands, combine the walnut mixture and graham cracker crumbs thoroughly. Press the crust into a 9-inch round pie pan. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden.
- For the caramel:
- Add the caramel ingredients into a small saucepan. Stir to combine, and turn the heat on to high. Cook the caramel for about 2 minutes, or until it is thick, but still slightly runny, like a caramel sauce. Pour the caramel evenly over the bottom of the crust.
- For the jam:
- Add the blueberries and sugar to a small saucepan over high heat. Cook the blueberries, stirring and mashing them constantly, for about 5 minutes, or until they have softened and formed a dark, purplish red, slightly thick syrup. Pour the jam in evenly over the caramel.
- For the peanuts:
- Combine the melted chocolate and honey. Stir in the peanuts to coat them in the mixture. Place the chocolate peanut mixture on top of the jam.
- For the honeycomb candy:
- Add the sugar, water and honey into a small saucepan over high heat. Cook the mixture, swishing it around in the saucepan often, until the mixture is golden, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda (the mixture will bubble up considerably). Pour the mixture, without tying to spread it out, over the peanuts.
- Let the candy cool for about an hour before slicing the pie. Enjoy!
