A very dear friend of mine sent me some special pecans yesterday and it was such a treat!! I had told her in passing that I am considered the "pie lady" in my family and am always asked to bring the pecan pie to our holiday dinners! She remembered! Some people are SO thoughtful!
Thank you so much! xoxo
I thought I would share my recipe today! As you can see, it's simple!
Pecan Pie
9" unbaked pie crust
Filling:
4 eggs beaten
1 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup (or more) pecans
2 teaspoons vanilla
Preheat oven 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients and pour in shell. Bake 55-65 minutes. (I had a note to cook it less, because I always seem to burn it.)
For some reason, I decided to add this song to my post. It has always been a favorite and reminds me to cherish the moments with my kids and family. Time passes too quickly! I miss the good old days. If you need the reminder today, listen very carefully... always make time for the people you love!
Love,
Angie xoxo

Thanks for the recipe. I live in the South and must confess that I have never made a pecan pie. My FIL loves them and will be pleased at our next meal together to find a favorite. :)
That is one FINE looking pie! YUM!
And this song is so appropriate for my latest post! Thanks for dropping by and for this little tear-jerker moment in my day! :o)

Augh, I will be right there after I wipe the drool off my chin. could you put on the coffee?
That song is haunting, isn't it! I am so mindful of all that with my traumatic afternoon. Thanks so much for your prayers.
Love you, Annette
Can I tell you that I love looking at pecan pies but I don't like to eat them at all. I think its a texture thing or something! They look so yummy but I just can't like them! :)
And...thanks for the really good song too. I'm lovin my family extra tonight! Time flies too quickly.
Big hugs~

I AM NOT a kitchen person at all, but I think I could do this :o) Well, won't I surprise my family. If it comes out even close to looking like your picture I'll be thrilled! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

I don't care for pecan pies, but I always bake them for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I will try this recipe.
