Ingredients

• 1 cup Raisins
• 0.25 cup Dark rum
• 1 whole Unbaked 9-inch pie crust
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Light corn syrup
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Pecan halves

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the raisins and dark rum. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor. Stir occasionally to ensure all raisins absorb the rum evenly.

Step 2

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Drain the soaked raisins, reserving the rum. Stir the raisins into the egg mixture, along with the pecan halves. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of the reserved rum for extra flavor if desired.

Step 5

Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading the pecans evenly across the top.

Step 6

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the filling is set around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 7

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This will allow the filling to firm up.

Step 8

Slice and serve as is, or with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
