Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 unbaked pie shell (8-1/2 inch to 9 inch)
1/2 cup pecan pieces
3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 tablespoons Bourbon (optional)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup pecan halves

Steps:

Dry roast the 1/2 cup of pecan pieces in a 300 degree F oven until dark; keep an eye on them so they don't burn, though. I start checking after 5 minutes and check frequently after that. When they're dark, transfer pecan pieces to a cutting board or plate and crush a little until they're in very small pieces. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat eggs in a large bowl until frothy. Add sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, vanilla extract, bourbon (if using), salt and reserved roasted pecan pieces. Combine thoroughly then stir in the 1 cup of unroasted pecan halves.
Pour mixture into an unbaked prepared pie shell, place pan on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for about 40 minutes.
Reduce oven heat to 325 degrees F and bake until filling is browned on top and crust is lightly browned; start checking after about 30 minutes in the oven.
Remove from oven and allow to cool thoroughly before serving.
