Pecan Pie for the Holidays


Pecan Pie is my all time favorite pie around this time of year. It is so rich and delicious and is great eaten all by its self. I was surprised when I made it for the first time at school how easy and how few ingredients it takes to make this pie, the pie crust takes the most work but using a 3 2 1 recipe even that is simple.

Salt 1 TB
Egg beaten 24
Corn Syrup 1 qt
Vanilla 2 1/2  TB
Pecans 1 LB 8 oz

2. Add eggs and salt mix well
3. Pour pie filling into pie shell and top with pecans
4. Bake tell done at 350 degrees Approx. 40 minutes
