Make With

Pillsbury Pie Crust

Ingredients

1 unbaked pie crust
3 large eggs
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups pecans, chopped

Steps

1

Preheat oven to 425° F. Place pie crust in 8 inch or 9 inch pie pan (I prefer glass). Trim and crimp edges so crust is ready to fill.
2

In bowl of a stand mixer, beat eggs one at a time. Add corn syrups, melted butter and vanilla, blending on low speed until well combined. Stir in chopped pecans.
3

Pour into prepared crust. Place pie into 425° F oven and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° F and bake another 35 to 40 minutes or until set.
4

Cool on cooling rack. Refrigerate overnight. (If you do not refrigerate the pie, be sure it is completely cool and set before slicing.)
