I need a good recipe for pecan pie!!!?

Answer 1

The best, most reliable recipe is on the glass jar of Karo Corn Syrup. Enjoy!

Answer 2

One batch Sweet Pastry Dough, for a 1-crust pie

Filling
1 cup dark corn syrup
3/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter
3 large eggs
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons Bourbon
2 cups pecan halves or pieces, or a combination

Prepare and chill the dough.

For the filling, combine corn syrup and sugar in saucepan and stir to mix. Place over low heat and bring to a boil, without stirring. Remove from heat, add butter and allow butter to melt. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs to break up and whisk in salt and Bourbon. Whisk in syrup and butter mixture, being careful not to over mix. Allow to cool while preparing bottom crust.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the lowest level. For the bottom crust, lightly flour the work surface and the dough and roll it to a 12-inch disk. Fold the dough in half and place it in the pan; unfold the dough and press it firmly into the pan. Trim away all but 1/2-inch excess dough at edge of pan. Fold dough under and flute edge.

Arrange pecans in crust. Skim foam from top of filling (or the top will have an unattractively mottled surface) and pour over pecans. With the back of a fork, press the pecans down into the filling so that they are immersed.

Bake the pie for about 45 minutes, until the crust is baked through and the filling is set and well puffed in the center. Cool the pie on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.

It is so delicous and has been in the family a long long time.

Pecan Pie

"Unlike most pecan pies, this one does not require corn syrup."
Original recipe yield: 1 - 9 inch pie.

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, beat eggs until foamy, and stir in melted butter. Stir in the brown sugar, white sugar and the flour; mix well. Last add the milk, vanilla and nuts.
Pour into an unbaked 9-in pie shell. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until done.

Answer 4

3/4 cups sugar
3/4 cups white syrup
3 eggs
2 tablespoons of butter melted*
1 tablespoon of cornstarch
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 or 2 cups of pecans

Mix all together the sugar, white syrup, eggs, cornstarch, butter, vanilla, and the salt in a large bowl. Then add the pecans! Pour into an unbake pie shell. Heat oven to 350 and bake pie for 45 minutes or until it sets in the middle.

Answer 5

Follow the recipe on the back of the Karo syrup bottle. Just remember to use real butter and real vanilla, not margarine or imitation vanilla. Do not over cook or pecans will be hard to chew.

Answer 6

I am allergic to pecans, so I am not sure which one you'll like best, but here's a list of recipes.

Answer 10

Yep, I use the Karo Syrup label recipe myself! Add 1 level Tbsp. of cornmeal to the batter to cut some of the sweetness and give the jelly part more texture.
