Pecan Pie

I made three pecan pies using this recipe for Thanksgiving.  This is a delicious pecan pie.  Most importantly, the pie set perfectly every time. 

Pecan Pie

Recipe by Mommy’s Kitchen


1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter (softened)
1 cup light corn syrup
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups pecans
1 9-inch deep dish pie shell (unbaked)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream (mix) the sugar and butter well in a medium sized mixing bowl.

Add syrup, salt, and vanilla. Mix again.

Add eggs one at a time and mix after each.

Stir in pecans.

Pour mixture into unbaked pie crust.

Bake in preheated oven until top is brown and pie set about 45 minutes. A toothpick stuck in center of pie should come out almost dry.

Enjoy!

*Tip: Be sure to mix ingredients well. Otherwise the pie may not set up. You can use chopped pecans or whole. Store in the refrigerator. May be reheated in microwave before serving (about 15 sec).
