If adding a stop of exposure compensation is causing you to overexpose, don't add that stop. Only add positive exposure compensation if your meter is causing you to underexpose.

Use a ND grad to balance the brightness of the sky with that of the land (or bracket your shots and merge in post), keep an eye on the histogram to ensure that there's no clipping, and also turn on highlight alerts if you have that option.
