Southern Pecan Pie

And pecan pie is probably one of the easiest homemade pies you can bake. There isn’t a whole lot involved. You dump almost all the ingredients in a bowl, then you stir, pour, and bake. And lucky for us, you can get really tasty frozen pie crusts these days. Or if you wanna do it all up from scratch, use your favorite pie crust recipe or maybe try my Wham Bam Pie Crust recipe.

The dark corn syrup in this recipe really adds such a great flavor because of the molasses that is in dark corn syrup. It’s not so sweet that you think you might break a tooth. And just a touch of ground cinnamon is that small little ingredient that really brightens the other flavors up a bit. Simply put, it’s just flat out yummy!

Ingredients

• 1 9-inch frozen pie crust or make your own
• 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans or pecan halves
• 3 eggs beaten
• 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
• 3 tbsp salted butter melted
• 1 cup dark corn syrup
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
2. Take frozen pie crust out of the freezer and place it on a baking sheet while preparing the filling.
3. Or, if you are using the Wham Bam pie crust, prepare the crust, prick it with a few holes using a fork, and then stick it in the refrigerator while preparing filling.
