Ingredients

  • 1 (9-inch) Pillsbury® pie crust, unbaked
  • 1 c pecan halves
  • 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 c light corn syrup
  • 1 c firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 c unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/8 tsp. Kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Prepare a 9-inch pie dish with the unbaked pie crust by pressing the crust into the bottom and sides of the dish. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Crimp the crust if desired and place the pecan halves, flat side down in the bottom of the crust.
  3. In a mixing bowl, add the eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, salt, and vanilla. Stir by hand until well blended.
  4. Pour the egg-sugar mixture into the pie crust over the pecans. The pecans will float to the top.
  5. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned and the filling is puffy.
  6. Let the pie cool to room temperature before cutting and serving.
  7. Serve with ice cream or top with whipped cream.
