IMG_2207

Recipe Ingredients:

1 prepared 8″ x 1″ deep pie shell, uncooked. (NOT any deeper or you won’t have enough filling)
1 ¾ cups raw pecan pieces or whole pecans (Lizzie prefers whole)
4 eggs beaten
½ cup sugar
½ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup 100 percent Pure Cane Syrup (upscale markets carry this)
¼ cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I prefer vanilla paste)

pinch of salt
½ stick butter, softened
1 tablespoon flour

Recipe Directions:

Preheat oven to 370 degrees. Spread the pecans evenly on the bottom of the pie shell. In a mixing bowl whisk the eggs, sugar, brown sugar, cane syrup, vanilla, salt, butter,and flour together. MIX WELL. Pour the mixture over the pecans. Bake for 40 minutes OR UNTIL the filling sets. (Sets means the pie filling puffs up in the center) Remove the pie from the oven and ALLOW TO COOL for 30 minutes before slicing.
