Pecan Pie - Wilma

Ingredients

3 eggs

½ cup dark corn syrup

teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup sugar

¼ cup melted butter

cup pecan halves

1 8" pastry shell

Directions

Beat the eggs until just blended, but not frothy.

Add the corn syrup, salt, vanilla, sugar, melted butter, and pecan halves.

Pour into the pastry shell.

Bake at 450°F for 10 minutes, then lower heat to 350°F and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes. Filling should appear slightly less set in center than at outer edge. It will become firm when cool.

Notes

For extra deep pie, pour filling into 7-inch pastry shell. Bake at 450°F for 10 minutes, then at 350°F for 45 to 50 minutes.
