Pecan Pie

• 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
• 2 cups pecan halves
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 3 large eggs, beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, mix corn syrup, eggs, sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt.

3. 3

   Stir in the pecans.

4. 4

   Pour the filling into the pie crust.

5. 5

   Bake on the center rack for 60 to 70 minutes. The filling should be set but not hard. You may need to cover the edges with foil after 30 minutes to prevent over-browning.

   Cool for at least 2 hours on a wire rack before serving.
