Pecan Pie Recipe

Ok, here it is. Just follow the step-by-step instructions and you'll be on your way to a perfect, pecan pie.

Pecan Pie Ingredients

This recipe calls for:

1 Cup White Corn Syrup

1 Cup Brown Sugar

1/3 Teaspoon Salt

1/3 Cup Melted Butter

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

3 Eggs

2 Cups Roasted Pecans

Step One: Melting Butter

Put the butter in the microwave until it is completely melted. During this step, preheat your regular oven to 350.

Step two: Mixing

Mix together in the mixing bowl:

1 Cup White Corn Syrup

1 Cup Brown Sugar

1/3 Teaspoon Salt

1/3 Cup Melted Butter

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

Step Three: Eggs

Mix (slightly beat) eggs until they look like the ones shown in the picture to the left.

Step Four: Add Eggs

Add the eggs to the batter and stir until the batter looks as it did before you added the eggs.

Step Five:

Pour the pecan pie filling into pie shell.

Step Six: Roasted Pecans

Sprinkle the 2 cups of roasted pecans on top of the pecan pie filling. Some pecans will sink into the filling; while, others will remain on top. Now, put your pie in a preheated oven set to 350F for 1 hour to an hour and 10 minutes.

Step Seven:

Foil

After the pie has been in the oven for about 30 minutes, take it out, and put strips of tinfoil around the edge to keep the pie crust from burning. Be careful not to spill you pie! The filling is runny and quite hot. Then, put the pie back in the oven.

After you put the pie back in the oven, it will need another 30 to 40 minutes. After about 30 minutes (a total of 1 hour in the oven) test the pie to see if it is done. You can test the pie by sticking a knife in the middle. If the knife comes out clean, the pie is done; if it comes out dirty, it needs about 10 more minutes in the oven.

Enjoy your masterpiece!
