Secret Recipe Revealed - Pecan Pie

My brother absolutely loves Pecan Pie.  As my wife and both children are allergic to pecans (and other tree nuts), we don't have this in the house unless my brother is visiting.  It is a very tThose Nuts Taste Greatasty moist version of a pie that can be done very wrong.

Mom's Pecan Pie

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

2 Tbsp. flour

1-1/4  cup light corn syrup

3 Tbsp. butter

1/4 tsp. salt

3 eggs

1-1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 unbaked 9 inch pie shell

1 cup large pieces of pecans

Mix brown sugar and flour in saucepan.  Add corn syrup, butter, and salt; warm over low heat just until butter is melted.  Remove from heat.  Beat eggs with vanilla.  Stir into sugar mixture.  Turn into pie shell; sprinkle with pecans.  Bake on lower rack of oven at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes untill filling is set in center.  Don't overcook.  Cool before cutting.

Love the wreath photo, and I see that you are quite the recipe guy. Funny thing is that I'm not much of a cook at all.

Love the front door shot and Mr Woodpecker or whatever kind of winged bird grazing on a seed buffet.

Thanks, Michele, for stopping by.  All of us need to practice moderation during the holidays.  I am not doing well on my personal moderation with all the good things that Dolores has prepared.

Best wishes for a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
