Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pie Crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If using a store-bought pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie pan and set aside. If making homemade, roll out the dough and fit it into the pie pan.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Whisk until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and chopped pecans.

  3. 3

    Fill the Crust

    Pour the pecan filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pie

    Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.

  5. 5

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve at room temperature or slightly warmed with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
