Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the pie crust

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk together until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add nuts

    Fold in the walnuts and pecans into the filling mixture.

  4. 4

    Combine with butter

    Melt the butter and stir it into the filling mixture until well incorporated.

  5. 5

    Fill the crust

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

  6. 6

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.

  7. 7

    Cool and serve

    Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
