This is my favorite pecan pie recipe. The lemon juice cuts thru the sugar a little so that the filling is not cloyingly sweet.
Servings: 6-8
INGREDIENTS
1 cup white corn syrup
½ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
2 tsp lemon juice
3 eggs
1 cup pecan halves
9″ pie crust, unbaked
- Combine all ingredients except pecans & pie crust. Mix until well blended.
- Stir in pecans.
- Bake at 425℉ for 10 minutes.
- Reduce heat to 325℉ and bake for 35 minutes or until set.
- Double filling for a 10″ deep dish pie crust.
- You can use chopped pecans – it will still taste great but it will not be as pretty.
