I always have requests for pecan pies at Thanksgiving and Christmas. This is a fool-proof recipe I’ve been making for thirty years. It came from my cousin Jim and I’m sure he wouldn’t mind me sharing it with you.
Southern Pecan Pie
- 3 eggs
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 cup light Karo syrup
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 cup pecan halves
- dash of salt
- 1 deep dish pie shell
Preheat the oven to 350º. Beat the eggs thoroughly with the sugar, salt, syrup,
and butter. Stir in the pecan halves. Bake for 50 minutes or until firm. Remove
from oven and cool.
