Instructions
-
Prepare the Pie Crust
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Flute the edges if desired. Place the pie dish in the fridge while preparing the filling.
-
Make the Filling
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
-
Assemble the Pie
-
Place the pecan halves in the chilled pie crust, then pour the filling mixture over them. The pecans will rise to the top as the filling bakes.
-
Bake the Pie
-
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden. If the crust browns too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
-
Cool and Serve
-
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. This helps the filling set, making it easier to serve neat slices.
