Southern Traditonal Pecan Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
• Beat eggs slightly in medium bowl. Beat in sugar, and then blend in syrup, butter or margarine, vanilla, salt, and pecans. Pour filling into unbaked pie shell.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking 35 to 40 minutes; the pie will be brown and slightly puffed.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium sauce pan, bring sugar and corn syrup to a slow boil and cook until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn heat off and add butter and stir until melted. Let mixture cool slightly.
• 2. In a large bowl, beat eggs with a fork until blended. Add cooked mixture to eggs and add vanilla. Mix well. Stir in pecans then pour ingredients into unbaked pie shell.
• 3. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or until pie crust is lightly browned. Take small piece of aluminum foil and wrap the edges of the pie crust to prevent it from getting too dark. (be careful as pie is still runny and is hot). Put back in oven and cook until pie is set or until a knife inserted into center of the pie comes out clean, about 20 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll the piecrust and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhang under and crimp the edge with a fork or your fingers. Bake the crust until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Cool completely on a rack. (Leave the oven on.)
• Whisk the corn syrup, brown sugar, salt, butter and vanilla in a medium bowl. Lightly beat the eggs in a small bowl, then whisk into the corn syrup mixture.
• Finely chop 1/2 cup pecans and spread evenly over the piecrust. Roughly chop another
• 1/2 cup pecans and mix into the corn syrup mixture, then pour the filling into the crust. Arrange the remaining 1 cup pecans on top in a decorative pattern.
• Bake the pie until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
