FEATURED RECIPE: Easy Pecan Pie

My Easy Pecan Pie recipe made using pecan halves.

You probably love it but hardly ever make it. Or maybe you've never baked a warm, sweet aromatic pecan pie.

This is one of the easiest pies to make. Just mix all the ingredients together, pour in a prepared pie shell and bake. It really is that easy.

My family has been making this pecan pie forever - my mother is almost 95 and she's been making it since she was young.

We all love it and you'll love it more when you find out just how easy it is to prepare.
Here you go - get ready for pure sweet satisfaction.


Easy Pecan Pie
Ingredients
1 frozen deep dish pie crust (room temperature)
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups pecan pieces
1 cup sugar
1 cup Karo corn syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup butter (melted but not hot)
2 tsp. McCormick pure vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together in medium mixing bowl. Pour into prepared pie shell and bake for 1 hour on center rack.
Note: You can do the done test by inserting a toothpick in top of the pie. The toothpick should come out clean. If pie filling sticks to toothpick, cook another 5 minutes and retest.
Enjoy!
