Ingredients

• 1 9-inch Unbaked pie crust
• 1.5 cups Pecan halves
• 1 cup Light corn syrup
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 3 Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Roll out the unbaked pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, corn syrup, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gently fold in the pecan halves, ensuring they are evenly coated with the mixture.

Step 5

Pour the pecan mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading the pecans out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 50–55 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly puffed. The center should still have a slight jiggle when gently shaken.

Step 7

If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil or a pie shield halfway through baking.

Step 8

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. This allows the filling to fully set.

Step 9

Slice and serve at room temperature or slightly warmed, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
