Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1½ teaspoons flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • 1 cup pecans chopped
  • 1 standard nine inch pie crust (not deep dish)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare pie shell or use frozen shell.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Beat eggs well.
  • Add sugar, corn syrup, flour, salt and vanilla.
  • Stir in butter and pecans.
  • Pour filling into pie shell.
  • Bake approximately 60 minutes or until center is set.
  • Let cool completely before slicing.

Notes

You can also make a homemade pie crust if you prefer. There's no need to pre-bake it.
If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with strips of foil or a pie shield.
To freeze, wrap the completely cooled pie tightly and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
