Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the unbaked pie crust in a pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Set it aside while preparing the filling.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the light corn syrup and packed light brown sugar. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
-
Add the three large eggs to the syrup and sugar mixture. Beat the eggs into the mixture until well combined.
-
Slowly pour in the melted butter while continuously mixing to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.
-
Add the vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
-
Take the pecan halves and arrange them evenly in the bottom of the unbaked pie crust.
-
Carefully pour the sugar, egg, and butter mixture over the pecans in the pie crust, ensuring the filling covers all the pecans.
-
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50-60 minutes or until the center is set and does not jiggle much.
-
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack to allow the filling to set properly.

Slice the Pecan Pie into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
