Ingredients

• 1 piece unbaked 9-inch pie crust
• 3 pieces large eggs
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups pecan halves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, corn syrup, sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

Step 3

Stir in the pecan halves, ensuring they are evenly coated with the mixture.

Step 4

Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish if it isn't already in one.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Gently arrange some additional pecan halves on the surface for decoration, if desired.

Step 7

Place the pie on the center rack of the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.

Step 8

To check for doneness, insert a knife or toothpick into the center of the pie; it should come out clean or with minimal filling sticking to it.

Step 9

Allow the pecan pie to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve plain or with a dollop of freshly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
