Instructions
Follow these step-by-step instructions to create a delicious and irresistible Pecan Pie:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Pie Crust: If using a store-bought crust, fit it into a pie pan. If making homemade, roll out the dough and lay it in the pan, fluting the edges as desired.
3. Mix Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and melted butter until smooth.
4. Add Eggs: Crack in the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
5. Flavor It Up: Stir in the vanilla extract and salt, ensuring all ingredients are fully combined.
6. Incorporate Pecans: Gently fold in the pecan halves, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
7. Pour into Crust: Carefully pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
8. Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. The filling should be set but slightly jiggly in the center.
9. Cool Down: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing.
With these straightforward instructions, you will have an incredible Pecan Pie ready to delight friends and family.
