My pecan pie can beat up your pecan pie

If I'm not mistaken, Adria usually posts in the early evening after work.  A recipe for this masterpiece is in order I would say. 

First, let me say y'all can call me a snitch if you want to, but I hit the REPORT ABUSE button and reported Adria for blatant lying because my Granny's pecan pie recipe is the best, and Adria claimed her pie was the best. So there!

 Anyway, here's Granny's recipe:

 1-1/2 sticks butter

3 level T flour

1-1/2 cups light corn syrup

3 cups sugar

9 eggs

1/2 scant tsp salt

3 cups nuts

3 tsp. vanilla

3 pie crusts

Heat oven to 425 degrees while mixing pies. Heat over low heat the first four ingredients until butter is melted. Beat eggs and salt together, slowly pour egg mixture into margarine and sugar mixture. Add nuts and vanilla. Put pies in oven on the lower rack. After they have been in oven for 2 to 3 minutes turn oven to 300 degrees. Cook 45 minutes. Check, because sometimes it takes one hour. Cool and serve.

Lol at BFC! 

 Your granny's pie recipe looks so simple that even I could probably make it.  Thanks for sharing.  I love family T&T recipes :)

Kinsey, even I can bake that pie, and I am not a baker by any stretch of the imagination. It's easy to make, and simply delicious.

For a little trivia about Granny's pecan pie recipe....why does it make 3 pies? She would buy the frozen pie crusts and at one time they came three to a package.

Tree made this pie once and had a gay man ask her to marry him! lol

Oh does that look incredible! Please, please post the recipe.  I'd love to make it!....

Yes,please,we need that recipe. My husband loves pecan pie. I just had him take a look and he immediately asked me to ask for the recipe.

Deep Dish Pecan Pie

1c butter, soft; 6oz cream cheese, soft; 2c flour; 1/4c sugar....Beat the first two on medium until creamy. Gradually add the last two, mix well. Shape into a flat disk, cover and chill 15 minutes. Roll to a 13" circle, transfer to a 9" springform pan (ungreeased). You will want to cover the outside of the bottom of the pan 'cause the butter WILL seep out while baking. And set it on a cookie sheet just to be safe when baking. Press the dough in and up the side of the pan. Don't be shy, go all the way up the side of the pan. Cover and chill.\

16oz bottle light corn syrup; 1 1/2c brown sugar; 1/3c butter, melted; 4 eggs, beaten; 4 yolks, beaten; 1tsp vanilla; 1/2tsp salt; 3 1/2c pecan pieces/halves...Combine syrup thru butter with a whisk. Add eggs thru salt well. Stir in the pecans. Pour into the crust and bake at 375 for 15 minutes, then reduce the temp to 300 and bake for 2 hours 15 minutes more. Shield it with foil to prevent browning. Rack cool. Cover and chill overnight for best slicing. Remove from pan for serving.

Now last time I baked it I had to bake it for longer in order for it to set. This time I baked it with foil covering it most of the time and for the time recommended and it looked fine but when I sliced into it some of the filling oozed out. It still tasted wonderful but I recommend you check it really well and if you have to bake it longer just put the foil on and bake away till it's all done.

Now unreport me for abuse!!!! lol

That pie looks sooooooooooo good. I am sitting here with a tall glass of icy milk waiting for a slice.

Now that's a beaut!

Bump for the recipe coveters...

Thanks for posting the recipe ! That is an absolutely beautiful pecan pie ! And I sure wish my cell phone took pictures like that .

BFC I have been making your pie ever since you posted the recipe a long time ago.. and it is so good..

I make 1 at a time for us ...  and 2 at Thanksgiving ..

BFC and Tree, have you ever made just one pie from your recipe?  I think it looks easy enough to do, but just wondered if you had tried it.  My mother had a recipe for sweet potato pie that made 2 pies.  When you made 2 it turned out good, but for some reason when you halved the recipe it wasn't as good!  LOL!
