A timeless Southern classic with a golden, gooey filling loaded with toasted pecans in a flaky pie crust. This is the quintessential Thanksgiving dessert.

  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups pecan halves
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Place pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together corn syrup, eggs, sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Arrange pecan halves in the bottom of the pie crust in an even layer.

  4. 4

    Pour the filling mixture over the pecans, allowing them to float to the top.

  5. 5

    Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, until the center is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing, at least 2 hours.
