This Southern pecan pie recipe has been passed down in my family. It's always a favorite and a must-have dessert at Thanksgiving. Use light or dark corn syrup.

Ingredients

3 large eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 cup light or dark corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter , melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
0.25 teaspoons salt
1.5 cups pecan halves
1 unbaked single crust pie , 9-inch

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2

Beat eggs slightly in a medium bowl. Whisk in sugar, then stir in corn syrup, butter, vanilla, salt, and pecans. Pour filling into unbaked pie shell.
3

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until the pie is golden brown and slightly puffed on top, 35 to 40 minutes. The filling should be set around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center.
