Pecan Pie

Pecan Pie is a classic Southern dessert celebrated for its rich, gooey filling, abundant with pecans, nestled in a buttery, flaky crust. This indulgent treat suits holiday gatherings or special occasions.

Ingredients

• 1 9-inch pie crust, unbaked
• 1 cup corn syrup, light or dark
• 1 cup sugar, granulated
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup pecans, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by placing the unbaked pie crust in it.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine corn syrup, sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
3. Stir in the chopped pecans until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust, ensuring an even spread.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the filling is firm and the crust is golden brown.
6. Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes to set the filling before slicing.
7. Serve the pie at room temperature or slightly warmed.
