Ingredients

1 unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup light corn syrup

1 cup packed brown sugar

3 large eggs

¹⁄₃ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

¹⁄₄ tsp salt

1 ¹⁄₂ cups pecan halves

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll out the pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. Crimp the edges as desired.
In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Stir in the pecan halves until they are evenly coated.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden. You may cover the edges of the crust with foil if they brown too quickly.
Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving.
