Pecan Pie Recipe

Ok, I am not a person that is fond of Pecan Pie. In other words I am not a nut about this nut. haha I do have a few family and friends that really like this type of pie. So each year I try to make one. I found is recipe that seems to have a few other ingredients that is not in my recipe I use each year. Thought I might give it go.

I guess I should mention I lost my other one in hopes that I would get out of making this pie this year


Found on www.elise.com

2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp molasses
2 Tbsp melted butter
2 Tbsp flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups pecans, coarsely chopped

1 9-inch pie shell, chilled for an hour if freshly made, defrosted for 10 minutes if frozen. (See pie crust recipes.)

1 Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread pecans along the bottom of the pie shell. Mix the remaining ingredients and pour over pecans. The pecans will rise to the surface of the pie.

2 Bake at 375°F for 45-50 minutes until the filling has set. About 20 minutes into the cooking you may want to use a pie crust protector, or tent the edges of the pie crust with aluminum foil to prevent the pie crust edges from burning.

3 Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Serves 8.
