Dear Abby Pecan Pie
Description
This pecan pie recipe combines ingredients including light corn syrup and packed dark brown sugar for a deeply sweet and slightly caramelized filling. The eggs, butter, salt, and vanilla provide structure, richness, and flavor depth. The mixture is poured into an unbaked pie crust and topped with pecans arranged evenly across the surface. Baking at 350°F for 45 to 50 minutes allows the filling to set properly, which can be tested with a toothpick inserted in the center coming out clean.
The finished pie features a golden surface with a chewy, sweet interior punctuated by toasted pecans that add both flavor and texture. This pie is commonly served with whipped cream or ice cream to complement its sweetness and warmth.
Ingredients
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup dark brown sugar packed

- 1 cup pecans

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the first six ingredients together, pour into pie crust, and top with pecans. Bake 45 to 50 minutes. It is done when a toothpick inserted in the center of the pie comes out clean.
Notes
