The recipe calls for basic ingredients that are likely already in your pantry: pecans, eggs, butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the pie bakes evenly and the crust becomes perfectly golden brown.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
Stir in the chopped pecans or leave them whole, depending on your preference. The pecans will float on top as the pie bakes, creating a deliciously crunchy topping that contrasts with the soft, sweet filling.
Pour the pecan mixture into a prepared pie crust, either homemade or store-bought. The crust acts as a perfect base for the rich filling and helps to keep everything together while baking.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pecan pie to cool completely before slicing and serving. This helps the filling set and makes it easier to cut clean slices.
