Ingredients

Method

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

3. 3

   In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and melted butter until well combined.

4. 4

   Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.

5. 5

   Stir in the vanilla extract and corn syrup until smooth.

6. 6

   Fold in the pecan halves, making sure they are evenly coated in the mixture.

7. 7

   Pour the pecan mixture into the prepared pie crust.

8. 8

   Gently tap the pie dish on the counter to release any air bubbles.

9. 9

   Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.

10. 10

    If the edges of the crust start to brown too quickly, you can cover them with aluminum foil to prevent burning.

    Once the Butter Pecan Pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

    Serve the Butter Pecan Pie at room temperature or chilled, topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.
