How to make it

  • **Requires Deep Dish Pie Pan**
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Pie Crust:
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt and white sugar. Cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually sprinkle the water over the dry mixture, stirring until dough comes together enough to form a ball. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
  • On a floured surface, flatten dough ball with rolling pin. Roll out into a circle that is one inch larger than pie dish. Place pie shell into dish and refrigerate until pie filling is complete.
  • Pie Filling:
  • In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, light and dark corn syrups, brown sugar, butter, salt and finely crushed pecans. Spread quartered pecans over bottom of refrigerated pie crust. Pour syrup mixture over top of pecans, then arrange pecan halves on top of pie.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Now cover pie with foil so as not to burn pecans or crust edge and bake for an additional 60 minutes.
  • **Important**- Please allow pie to cool for about 1 hour so as to fully set up in the middle before eating. Fresh whipped cream is soooo good with the pecan pie.

    Shandy, I want to make your pecan pie very soon for my father's b-day. The only thing is... I looked and looked and I cannot find corn syrup in supermarkets. It is not used in Portugal, therefore not for sale... Would you recommend a substitute?

    I had some pecans in the freezer and a little time to spare, so I made this pie. It came out beautiful. I really hope our pecan trees do well this year so I can make this pie for everyone I know. I only saved a tiny piece for us, but gave some to my neighbors and a friend of mine that loves pecan pie. Thanks for this great recipe!!!

    I made this for my Mother-In-Law's 85 birthday as her birthday "cake" because she loves pecan pie so it was a gamble for me to do it for her and several family guests...it was a MAJOR hit!!! Even my wife said she had NEVER had a pecan pie as good as this....thanks for sharing!!!!!!
