  • 1.5 cups pecan halves
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
Crust
  • 1 unbaked pie crust (9-inch)

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
  3. Stir in the pecan halves and pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Baking
  1. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown.

Notes

For an extra touch, toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the filling for a deeper flavor. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
