Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Unbaked 9-inch pie crust
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Light corn syrup
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Pecan halves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare your unbaked 9-inch pie crust by placing it in a pie dish and crimping the edges. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, light corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Spread the pecan halves evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Pour the filling mixture over the pecan halves, making sure all the nuts are coated and evenly distributed.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly puffed. You can test for doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack, about 2-3 hours, before slicing and serving.
Serve plain or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
