Ingredients
Scale
- 1 unbaked pie crust
- 2 cups pecan halves
- 1 cup corn syrup, light or dark
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- ⅓ cup salted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare your pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Place it in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of corn syrup, 3 large eggs, ½ cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of packed brown sugar, ⅓ cup of softened salted butter, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until smooth.
- Gently fold in the 2 cups of pecan halves into the mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
- Pour the filling into the chilled pie crust evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 90 minutes, or until the filling is set. The pie should be golden and slightly puffed.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before serving. For added delight, top with cold heavy cream and a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
Notes
Ensure the pie crust is properly chilled before adding the filling for best results.
Let the pie cool completely before slicing to allow it to set correctly.
Heavy cream adds richness; you can substitute with half-and-half for a lighter version.
