Course: Dessert
Servings: 1 pie

Ingredients

  • 1 deep dish pie crust premade or made from scratch
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3 T brown sugar
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 1 cup corn syrup
  • 1/3 cup melted butter salted
  • 3 whole eggs beaten
  • 3/4 t pure vanilla extract
  • 1 heaping cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix the white sugar, brown sugar, salt, corn syrup, butter, eggs and vanilla in a bowl.
  • Pour te chopped pecan into the bottom of the pie crust.
  • Pour the sugar mixture over the top of the pecans (the pecan will rise to the top while baking).
  • Spray some foil with nonstick spray and then lightly cover the pie with the foil. (The nonstick spray will prevent the pie from sticking to the foil.) Place the pie on a baking sheet.
  • Bake the pie for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake for 20 minutes. The pie is done when it only slightly jiggles. If the pie is overly jiggly, continue to bake for up to 30 more minutes.
  • (Keep an eye on the crust and pecans to make sure they do not burn.)
