Mom’s Pecan Pie

INGREDIENTS

1 prepared Deep Dish Pie Crust – uncooked.
3 slightly beaten eggs
1 cup corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans

INSTRUCTIONS

01 – Slightly beat the eggs.
02 – Add syrup, sugar, salt, vanilla and pecans.
03 – Pour into uncooked deep dish pie crust.
04 – Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
05 – Pie is done when the center no longer jiggles.

NOTE: Mom used Karo corn syrup – the clear kind, not the dark. So that’s what I always use too.

I have no idea if this particular recipe is posted anywhere else on the web.  Probably it is as there can only be so many ways to make pecan pie. This is by far the best recipe though.  It has been handed down in our family for generations.  Just make one for yourself and you’ll agree, it is the best!

Enjoy!
