Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Pre-bake the pie shell: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Bake the pie shell for 5 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

02

Step
5 mins

Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and salt together until light and lemon-colored, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar until well combined. Gently fold in the melted butter and dark corn syrup using a wire whisk until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

03

Step
5 mins

Assemble the pie: Pour the pecan pie filling into the partially baked pie shell. Arrange the pecan halves on top in a decorative pattern, pressing them gently into the filling with the broken side down.

04

Step
40 mins

Bake the pie: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Then, reduce the heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.

05

Step
2 hrs

Cool and serve: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly. Enjoy!

For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the pecan halves before adding them to the filling.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter. Simply cook the butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown and smells nutty.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
