I’ve had this pecan pie recipe as long as I can remember, I don’t even know where I got the recipe from, all I know it I love this pie.
Usually pecans are kept whole in a pecan pie,
but this recipe calls for them chopped.
Ingredients:
1 -9″ unbaked pie crust
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 dark corn syrup
3 Tablespoons melted butter
1 cup chopped pecans
Dash of salt (pinch)
Directions:
Combine eggs and sugar and mix well. Add the rest of ingredients in order listed. Stir well and pour into an unbaked 9″ pie shell.
Bake at 350 F for 45 to 60 minutes.
* Lightly brush pie shell with egg white before filling, this helps seal the crust and helps prevent pie crust from being soggy
Thanks for the tip on brushing the crust w/egg white. Great idea.Thanks.My rec. is the same except I use 1/2 cup of Maple Syrup.:)I LOVE this pie. PS I also chop the pecans. Easier to slice.Happy Thanksgiving to you my friend, and fabulosso bakerette!:)

Glad you enjoy the recipe! I’ve not used Maple Syrup in pies, but I’m sure it tastes delish! I agree about the nuts, much easier to cut slices.
