Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 c light karo syrup
1 c sugar
2 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
1 c pecan halves
1 pie crust, unbaked

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • 2. Note: Put your pie on a baking sheet in case it bubbles over.
  • 3. Mix together the first seven ingredients.
  • 4. Pour into the unbaked pie shell and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 and bake for 37 more minutes.
  • 5. Remove and allow to cool. The pie will continue to cook when you remove it from the oven so don't be fooled into thinking it's not done.
