Filling
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the pie crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If you are using a store-bought pie crust, fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. If you are making your own, roll out the dough and place it in the pie plate, trimming any excess.

Mix the filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, melted unsalted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, bourbon, and salt. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Add pecans
Gently fold in the pecan halves to the filling mixture.

Bake the pie
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Cool and serve
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help the filling set completely. Serve slices plain or with whipped cream.
