Pecan Pie recipe


Mom's Pecan Pie


What you'll need:




1- 15oz package refrigerated piecrusts (you'll stack two together)
3- large eggs
1 cup sugar
3/4 light corn syrup
2- tablespoons melted butter
2- teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups pecans

Preheat oven to 350F. Toast pecans on a cookie sheet for about 5 minutes or until fragrant, be careful not to leave them in too long. One of the secrets to this recipe is toasting the pecans, if you don't then they are chewy in your pie.
--While pecans are toasting, unfold the 2 piecrusts, and stack them together one on top of the other in a lightly greased 9" pie plate. Push edges down around plate with your fingers.
--Stir together eggs, sugar, syrup, butter, vanilla and COOLED pecans. Put the pecans in hot, and you'll begin to cook the eggs.
--Pour filling into piecrust. Bake at 350F for 50-55 minutes until set. Serve warm, or cool completely on a wire rack. ENJOY!!!!
