This pecan pie without corn syrup is sweet and flavorful without the overpowering sweetness of corn syrup. In this recipe, eggs, brown and white sugars, and a touch of flour help to thicken the filling, so your pie will be perfectly set and ready to please guests at your Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Dollop each slice with whipped cream and a sprig of fresh mint.
