You can top this with a bit of whipped cream, but even plain, nothing tops this.

Time needed

10 min preparation + 50 min cooking

Serving Size / Yield

8 servings

Ingredients

  • one 9-in. unbaked pie shell
  • 1 C. light corn syrup
  • 1 C. brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 3 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1/3 C. butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 C. pecan halves (heaping cup)

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine corn syrup, sugar, eggs, butter, salt, and vanilla; mix well. Pour into unbaked pie shell and sprinkle with pecan halves. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until center is set (toothpick inserted in center will come out clean when pie is done). If the crust or pie appear to be getting too brown, cover with foil for the remaining baking time. Cool baked pie before serving.
