Pecan Pie Ingredients

Method

Pecan Pie Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess crust hanging over the edges and crimp the edges if desired.

  2. 2

    Toast the Pecans

    Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and toast them in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes until fragrant. Remove from oven and let cool.

  3. 3

    Mix the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  4. 4

    Add Pecans

    Fold the toasted pecans into the filling mixture.

  5. 5

    Pour and Bake

    Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with whipped cream.
