Southern Pecan Pie
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup pecan halves or pieces
Ina bowl, slightly beat eggs and sugar, corn syrup, evaporated milk and vanilla. Blend well. Add pecans. (I usually save about half the pecans to arrange on top.)
Pour into unbaked 9" pie shell (You can find my pie crust recipe here). Bake in 400 degree oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 30 to 40 minutes or until filling is puffed in center and is well browned. Let pie cook before cutting. I probably could have let mine brown another 5 minutes or so, but it tasted just fine. :)
Oh SEEEEEEE....your pie is even prettier than the other picture....I'm going to try this recipe!!! Thanks!!!
ReplyDelete50s Housewife - this looks WONDERFUL! I enjoy a couple of bites of pecan pie, but it is really too sweet for me. Maybe I'll make this for hubby next time he gets a sweet tooth...he LOVES pecans! :o) I'm workin' on BONUS points, here! :o)
