If anyone asks me what is my favorite pie, I will answer without blinking that this Pecan Pie is the one! It is one of the best pies I’ve ever tasted, and this is incredibly easy to throw together using only ingredients that you might already have on hand. If you have not tried pecan pie yet, you are already missing out big time! Make sure to try this simple recipe very soon. It is a total game changer!
Ingredients
3 whole eggs, beaten
1 whole unbaked pie crust (for this, I use “Sylvia’s Perfect Pie Crust” recipe)
1/3 cup melted butter (salted)
1 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 c. corn syrup
1 cup (heaping) chopped pecans
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
How to make Pecan Pie
Step 1: For this recipe, I use Sylvia’s Perfect Pie Crust. Whip this up first and set it aside.
Step 2: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F.
Step 3: In a bowl, place the sugar, brown sugar, salt, corn syrup, butter, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well until combined.
Step 4: In the bottom of the unbaked pie shell, pour the chopped pecans and pour the syrup over.
Step 5: Lightly tent the top and crust. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for additional 20 minutes. Make sure not to burn the crust or pecans. If the top of the pie is not overly jiggly when you take it out of the oven, it is perfect! But if the top shakes too much, simply tent again with foil and continue baking for another 20 minutes or until set.
Step 6: Remove from the oven when done and let the pecan pie cool for a couple of hours or overnight.
Step 7: When ready, serve the pecan pie in thin slices. Enjoy!
