Prep:
15 mins
Cook:
1 hr
Total:
1 hr 15 mins
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup, preferably Karo
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, preferably Land O'Lakes, softened
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour, heaping
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
- 1 crust pie crust, unbaked homemade or commercial, preferably Pillsburry
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- If using a homemade crust, prepare the pie crust by placing it into an ungreased, regular 9-inch glass pie plate and fluting the edges.
- Whisk the eggs together, then whisk in the sugar.
- Stir in the corn syrup and the softened butter; mix well.
- Add the flour and the vanilla; combine well.
- Fold in the pecans.
- Pour mixture into the unbaked pie shell and bake at for about 55 to 60 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Shield the outside edges of the pie with a pie shield or aluminum foil about halfway through cooking to prevent over-browning.
- Let the pie cool down completely, slice, then serve!
Recipe Notes
- Toast pecans for extra flavor
- Don't use a blender or a mixer for mixing. Use a whisk and a wooden spoon and hand mix only to avoid overbeating which will cause the pie to be runny.
