I'm 73yo in Murray, KY. I bake a lot. Going to my younger brother's in Glasgow for Thanksgiving. I asked what to bring and he requested pecan pie. I have pecan trees and it's been a bountiful mast year. So I will be taking "your" pecan pie using pecans I harvested from my trees. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for letting us be a part of your holiday this year. We hope you enjoy the pie - you sure won't get pecans any fresher than ones you harvested from your own tree! That's wonderful! Happy Thanksgiving!
@JudithBrummett : Story about the trees. My maternal uncle was an agent for Life of Georgia Insurance. He went to Atlanta every year for the Corporate Meeting. He always brought a sack of pecans back. Daddy started seedlings. He had two huge trees. He started more seedlings from his trees. He gifted me 2 of the seedlings ~20yag. They are now producing and the nuts are awesome when the gray squirrels don't get them. Daddy has been gone since 2018 but he is still with us in the trees. Thanks for the comment.
@@gerardjohnson2106 What a lovely story! we stay in AZ every winter in our RV but on the way we stop at Junction TX and pick up pecans (free!) in the city park. It is so fun gathering them! I know there are ppl who will shell them in machines for a small price or percentage of nuts but I enjoy using my nutcracker and shelling them by hand. I have planted a fig tree that should start producing in the next cpl years so I am looking forward to that too. Have a blessed thanks giving.
What memories that pie brings. At Christmas time all of us kids would go to my moms for what we called Christmas Eve. My mom would always make my twin sister (RIP Sis. I miss you) a blueberry cheesecake and she would make me a pecan pie to take home as part of our Christmas presents. She would use chopped pecans because she didn't want the pie messed up just like you said. One of my brothers would always try to steal our pies but my mom would catch him every time and smack his butt with her "Mama knows best" yardstick. To get the best goodies Mama made you had to get in the front of the line or you would miss out on the pigs in a blanket (those were the hot ticket item at Christmas). When my sister got cancer mama made a family decision that Donna got to be at the front of the line. The look on her face and that big smile she had was worth all the gold in the world. She slow walked by everyone going to the front and she would smile this Cheshire Cat smile and her over exaggerated sway. Those were the days. We would tell everyone on their first Christmas at moms that we get a little crazy at Christmas lol... Great memories. Thank you. I don't know what you taught as a teacher but, it should have been home economics. At least thats what we called it in my day (I'm telling my age lol). My grandchildren call it culinary arts.
It's been a year since you left your sweet comment. My only child, my daughter and she is battling terminal cancer. She will definitely get to go to the front of the line. I am so sorry for the loss of your sister and will pray for the good Lord to comfort you and your family during this holiday season.🙏
@@Rudymk-ph2xb Thank you and I am so sorry for what your daughter and you are going through. I will keep you and yours in my prayers. Always remember, the Good Lord deals in miracles and they happen every day so don''t ever give up. Big Hugs to you.
I just put your pecan pie in the oven. Can’t wait. Thanks so much! I had to bake it for 60 minutes, The pie came out of the oven, cooled and my husband, my son and I ate half of it . It was so delicious.we finished it off the next day.
I’ve made pecan pie with the dark corn syrup before and it does taste quite a bit different from the white syrup but I find it very difficult to acquire dark corn syrup here in Texas. You just about have to go and buy your dark corn syrup during the summer months and stash it back in your cabinet until the holidays because by the time October rolls around they don’t have enough of it on the shelf for people to buy. The dark corn syrup does give it a much richer flavor and I like both, the pecan pies made from the white corn syrup and the dark corn syrup, and I have also eaten pecan pie made from just white sugar, no syrup. And that’s good too. But I will tell you if you’re ever stuck with having to use the white corn syrup or just plain sugar, if you will add a fourth of a cup or even a half of a cup of molasses to the pie you will get a very similar flavor that the dark corn syrup gives. It’s very good. And actually when people use the brown sugar rather than all white sugar they are also getting more molasses because that’s what brown sugar is made of and of course the dark brown sugar has more molasses than the light brown sugar. Since it is so extremely difficult to find dark corn syrup in some areas of the United States, I really believe it would be beneficial if you could pass this information on to your audience. Hopefully together we will be able to help people in a predicament. I’m sure many many people would love to make the pecan pie that you’re making because it is much richer and much more flavorful than what they could make or pick up already made at the grocery store. That’s for sure. Thank you for sharing your recipe 😋!
Also..thank you for demonstrating how to do the pie crusts. I’ve always struggled with that, but now I know how to get it right. You certainly have taught me a lot about cooking.
I too use to make homemade pie crust until this brand premade pie crust. Very good, just hard to tell not homemade. You won’t be sorry. 🦃🍁Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃
I enjoy watching u bake!! I thought how wonderful for a husband who likes to bake. I have always been the one who tried something new...how I would have love to have come home to someone baking in my kitchen. But I find it a joy to watch you and listen to your wife.,as she helps u!! Such a nice blessing to work together!! Many blessings to you both!!
Thanks Tom and Melissa! 🥧 🍰 Thanks for the tip on that pie shield. Never heard of it. Always fought with aluminum foil around the edges. Blessings from Arizona 🌵
Love pecan pie, my favorite! This recipe looks so good. I will definitely make this recipe. I’m enjoying the recipes and your channel. Thanks. Kindness, Teresa
I enjoy watching y’all! I’m in Ormond Beach, but I’m originally from Georgia..so I laughed when you pronounced your pie..pecon. 😄. We pronounce it peCAN here in the south. 😉
We love pecan pie(I think we love most pies) 🤭 Love watching your easy to follow demonstrations and recipes... always ready to learn .. ❣️Thank you both..from Paducah,Kentucky (school cafeteria worker for 19 years) retired ...have a lovely day
I just love watching you cook and bake Tom. I am watching you two over and over. I told my son about your dry brine for turkey and I think we're going to do that this year because he has a turkey frier and can't wait to use it.
This is a really good tutorial on this and also some great hints on that piecrust. I just bought six of them at the store to make pies. Happy Thanksgiving to y’all. I bet this is a great recipe he’s got!!!🦃👨🍳
Looks delicious! Have you ever tried the pecan pie with cook & serve vanilla pudding in it? Not as sweet as the traditional. 1- 3.5 oz vanilla pudding, not instant! 1 cup light corn syrup, 1 egg, 3/4 cup evaporated milk, 1 cup broken pecans or more, mix all together pour into pie crust deep dish 9 inch. Bake 375 - 35 to 40 min.
My Mother always used both dark and light corn syrup it was like a happy medium in color. Love pecan pie. Thanks for the recipe ❤❤ Oh, very helpful about the pie crust too!
You are such a good cook and a really good teacher! 🍎 I always learn something new watching your videos even if you're making something I've made before. Always a pleasure. Hope you will be free of those allergy issues soon 🙏
Hi y’all I love pecan pie and will be making y’all’s pecan pie for the holidays ! Thanks for always adding the recipe and instructions with each video ! God bless ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈
You two are so cute! This is the first of your videos I’ve seen - you had me at “pecan pie”! I’m a native Californian but my husband is originally from Mississippi - one of 5 boys. They all have such wonderful memories of the big pecan tree in their yard back home, and Daddy shelling the nuts for hours so Mama would bake some pies. Pecan pie is still his absolute favorite, even at 70 years old. I made one for him many years ago, using his mom’s handwritten recipe, but something was “off”. I can’t wait to try your recipe and loved the step by step demonstration. I’ll make a couple of these for our family Christmas gathering here at our home…one for him and one for the four brothers! 😆. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining the difference in flavor with the dark and light corn syrup. Love the recipe, and my son love the way you deliver the recipes... Like a school teacher!!!
I have never made a homemade pie before but I’m definitely going to give this a try. You make it seem so easy with your instructions on making this. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us. You’re great at explaining everything.😊
This looks delicious. Always good to see a different pecan pie recipe. I make a different version and baste the rim of my pie crust with egg white instead of using a pie rim (going on 50 yrs). I also prick the bottom and sides with a fork to keep the crust from bubbling up.
Thank you for the great tip on the pie crust! I will add it to my recipe so l don’t forget it. I am creating a favorite recipes cookbook so l have them all in one place and l will donate my cookbooks. It’s part of my downsizing since l am 75 and don’t want to leave a lot of unnecessary things for family to go through and decide what to keep, donate, or toss. One thing l always do when using pecans in a recipe is to toast them. I spread them evenly on a rimmed baking sheet and bake at 350 until they begin to turn darker and become aromatic, making sure to toss halfway through, 7 to 10 minutes, remove from the oven and let cool. You just have to keep an eye on them because you can overcook them!
Great tip! Thanks for sharing it with us. We appreciate that you've reached out to us. We've been so blessed with wonderful connections to people through this channel. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Your pie crust looks so good. Your sure make it look so easy. My pie crust always shrinks, now I know why. I bought some pretty frozen pie shells to make my pecan pie. They are not like the other kind, they are Marie Callendar frozen pie shells. I found them in my Food Lion store and they were on sale, so I stocked up. I do not know if they are a holiday item or not, but the edges are so pretty. I got to learn how to do pie shells, all it takes is time and practice, but you sure make it look so easy.
We appreciate those nice words. Thanks so much for watching our channel and enjoy the pies! It's always a happy day when you can stock up on items you like that are on sale! Happy Thanksgiving!
I didn't have enough corn syrup for my pie once I used maple syrup to make up the difference. I got so many compliments!!! Try half of each!! I mean whatever your corn syrup is divide it .
Made a many of pecan pie but never but pecan in first. Always mix in filling. I use Blackburn table syrup instead of Karo works well love the taste. Love your channel.
It is true.. Tom's dishes are very rich with all the butter, sugar and all the delish ingredients which are oh so loaded. But the man ploughs trenches thru my soul with his stunning recipes he teaches us. Thank you Tom. Tasteless food is not my fortè
Your pecan pie and pumpkin pie will be on our Thanksgiving table! Thanks for your demonstration of rolling out and flouring the pie crust! Wishing you and Melinda a blessed Thanksgiving!
Pecans are so expensive and sometimes I have substituted walnuts for the Pecans.. I loved it just as much As the Pecans .. Thank You Tom and Melissa and hope you feel better Tom!! Happy Thanksgiving !!
I made this yesterday for Thanksgiving. It was delicious!! There were a few more pecans than a traditional recipe, but my family was happy about that! If anyone is wondering about the added cinnamon, the taste was very subtle and reminded me of the cinnamon pecans that are sold around Christmas in the mall. Thank you so much for all of your videos. I’m a teacher and it’s been my morning routine for the last couple of weeks to watch your videos while I get ready for school. 😊
Thanks for your many great recipes! I love the Pillsbury pie crusts but have never rolled them out before placing in the plate. What a helpful idea! You guys are a great team!
I am definitely going to make this pie this season. Thank you for sharing your recipe and your ideas such as spraying your measuring cup with spray oil before measuring corn syrup and the detail of the cap of vanilla extract equivalent to a teaspoon. Thanks y'all and God Bless!
We live in Somerset, Ky and I love your cooking videos ‼️‼️and I told my granddaughter about your videos. She is learning how to cook and you are an excellent teacher. I don’t know what you taught but I wish I had had you for algebra, I might have passed it!!!😂😂😂
Can't help but wonder what genius came up with pecan pie 🥧 I can imagine them in the kitchen at winter ❄️ cold outside and a fire roaring and came up with it.
Made your pecan pie recipe for Thanksgiving and it was a hit with everyone! Thank you so much; the pie was delicious and hope you had great Thanksgiving!!!!!
Hi, I really love all your videos. I'm not a big fan of pecans unless they are very finely chopped. 😊 That pie looks delicious. I have never used the box pie shell, however, I do use the frozen that is already in a pie tin. This Thanksgiving I'm going to try the box pie shell. I'll give it a try. Mr. Tom, I also purchased the pie crust cover I think they will work better instead of aluminum foil that I've been using for years. Melissa, you do a great job with the camera. 😊
I love that mat for rolling out my pie shells and especially for cutting out biscuits. I just remodeled my kitchen and put quartz counters in. I won’t cut out biscuits on my counters. Of course I didn’t when I had Formica counters. This has got to be one more delicious pie. Thank you for sharing. Have a beautiful, peaceful day. ❤🙏🏻There was more than one piece of pie cut out of your pie… 🤔🤔😂
If you can make the crust a bit larger and when you flute it try to hook it over the edge it helps to prevent shrinkage when baking. Just a thought. I do enjoy all your videos. Thanks
Good morning Tom & Melissa, Tom, how can you eat that pie in front of us? That happy face, well do enjoy. The pie turned out so delicious looking and the pie crust baked beautifully. This sure is a winner. I agree, the smaller pecans make the cutting of the pie much better. Eat with ice cream, just cream or just enjoy this is always welcome at the table. Thank you for sharing the tips with the flour on the pastry, and the great recipe. We do not celebrate Thanks Giving but there is no reason not to bake this Pecan Pie and be grateful. Thank you for sharing, many blessings. Do have a wonderful Thanks Giving day in any which way you are going to spend it. Kind regards.
I just canned pecan pie filling yesterday, but used no eggs or Karo...used clear jel as thickening. If I can find a pressure canner at a reasonable price, I'll can some filling with all the frills. Always good to have things on hand to make a fast treat when needed. Thanks for sharing. When I get to can, I'll definitely use pieces instead of whole pecans 🥰
I was always afraid to make a pecan pie. Your tutorial and instructions make me feel a lot more comfortable in trying it now. Thanks for the recipe and wish me luck because I will be making this one. I have to also tell you that I love what you say at the end of your videos and I feel that I would be welcomed to "Come Sit At your Table."
I had been thinking about making a pecan pie for Thanksgiving, and I think that I will be using your recipe. I may use a technique that my mother taught me years ago to use 50% Karo Syrup and 50% Golden Sorghum Molasses. I live just across the Ohio River from Paducah, KY in Southern Illinois.
I remember my first attempt at a pecan pie and this was before the internet. It didn't set very well, still good Like you said very little or no jiggle. As my taste refined, I use light syrup and add molasses for a medium dark color. Most store bought ones use light syrup and IMHO they are lacking but the dark syrup is a little much, I've found a middle ground. Great video will help many young cooks this Thanksgiving.
I love watching your videos, I work evenings and when I get back home, I watch one of your videos. I was wondering if you could make a cut out cookie recipe for the holidays? 🎄
I just wanted to thank you for sharing your delicious recipes. I made the one with the cream cheese and pastry roll however I tweeted it just a bit. I added a can of apple pie mix , spreading the apples evenly over the cream cheese then the rest of the mix . It was simply DELICIOUS !!!
I've searched so many recipes and found you!!!! My pie was a HIT absolutely agree the dark corn syrup gives it that mmmm i want more taste thanks for sharing💗💗💗💯💯💯
Tom and Melissa,I hope you both have a blessed Thanksgiving. Melissa is a lucky lady to have you cook so well! I’m an RN and nasal Flonase might help with your allergies too!! It’s over the counter and there is a cheaper generic one at Target. ❤❤ Karin. PS I really enjoy your show!!
I will have to say,to make this pie.... looks very easy to do. You are both amazing....Thank You for being here and showing us how to do what you do.....
Thanks so much 😊 We really appreciate the nice comment. In our opinion, this is a very easy recipe to put together for the holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm 73yo in Murray, KY. I bake a lot. Going to my younger brother's in Glasgow for Thanksgiving. I asked what to bring and he requested pecan pie. I have pecan trees and it's been a bountiful mast year. So I will be taking "your" pecan pie using pecans I harvested from my trees. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for letting us be a part of your holiday this year. We hope you enjoy the pie - you sure won't get pecans any fresher than ones you harvested from your own tree! That's wonderful! Happy Thanksgiving!
I SO! envy you having your own trees. Enjoy your family Thanksgiving and pie.
@JudithBrummett : Story about the trees. My maternal uncle was an agent for Life of Georgia Insurance. He went to Atlanta every year for the Corporate Meeting. He always brought a sack of pecans back. Daddy started seedlings. He had two huge trees. He started more seedlings from his trees. He gifted me 2 of the seedlings ~20yag. They are now producing and the nuts are awesome when the gray squirrels don't get them. Daddy has been gone since 2018 but he is still with us in the trees. Thanks for the comment.
@@gerardjohnson2106 What a lovely story! we stay in AZ every winter in our RV but on the way we stop at Junction TX and pick up pecans (free!) in the city park. It
is so fun gathering them! I know there are ppl who will shell them in machines for a small price or percentage of nuts but I enjoy using my nutcracker and shelling them by hand. I have planted a fig tree that should start producing in the next cpl years so I am looking forward to that too. Have a blessed thanks giving.
I've never heard using cinnamon in pecan pie. I had cooked for 50years. HAPPY Thanksgiving.
Warm pecan pie with a glass of ice cold milk. Can't be beat!
That's a marvelous combination!
My favorite!
Oh ... YEAH!!!
What memories that pie brings.
At Christmas time all of us kids would go to my moms for what we called Christmas Eve. My mom would always make my twin sister (RIP Sis. I miss you) a blueberry cheesecake and she would make me a pecan pie to take home as part of our Christmas presents. She would use chopped pecans because she didn't want the pie messed up just like you said. One of my brothers would always try to steal our pies but my mom would catch him every time and smack his butt with her "Mama knows best" yardstick. To get the best goodies Mama made you had to get in the front of the line or you would miss out on the pigs in a blanket (those were the hot ticket item at Christmas). When my sister got cancer mama made a family decision that Donna got to be at the front of the line. The look on her face and that big smile she had was worth all the gold in the world. She slow walked by everyone going to the front and she would smile this Cheshire Cat smile and her over exaggerated sway. Those were the days. We would tell everyone on their first Christmas at moms that we get a little crazy at Christmas lol... Great memories. Thank you.
I don't know what you taught as a teacher but, it should have been home economics. At least thats what we called it in my day (I'm telling my age lol). My grandchildren call it culinary arts.
It's been a year since you left your sweet comment. My only child, my daughter and she is battling terminal cancer. She will definitely get to go to the front of the line. I am so sorry for the loss of your sister and will pray for the good Lord to comfort you and your family during this holiday season.🙏

Great tip on breaking up the pecans! Thanks.🥧
I mix light and dark corn syrup. It’s a better taste. Balance. I’m a great fan. Thanks for sharing
Me, too! I always do half light and half dark corn syrup. I think that makes the perfect pecan pie.
Why not skip the corn syrup all together?
Because it won't have the right texture
Also..thank you for demonstrating how to do the pie crusts. I’ve always struggled with that, but now I know how to get it right. You certainly have taught me a lot about cooking.
My mom made the absolute best pie crust (and pies), so I never even considered a pre made pie crust. I sure will now! Looks wonderful!
I too use to make homemade pie crust until this brand premade pie crust. Very good, just hard to tell not homemade. You won’t be sorry. 🦃🍁Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃
You are fortunate to have good homemade pie crust. There is nothing better.

You could substitute walnuts for the pecans
I just love all your little tips.
I didn't have enough corn syrup for my pie once
I used maple syrup to make up the difference. I got so many compliments!!! Try half of each!! I mean whatever your corn syrup is divide it .
Looks amazing and so much easier than I thought it would be. This will be my first year making a pecan pie, thank you for this post!
Absolutely wonderful! I can't wait to bake it. Thanks once again. You are the best cooking channel on UA-cam. Happy Thanksgiving!
Made a many of pecan pie but never but pecan in first. Always mix in filling. I use Blackburn table syrup instead of Karo works well love the taste.

Great tip with the dark corn syrup and halving the pecans ! Love your videos ❤
Thanks so much! 😊 We really do appreciate that you are watching our channel.
Your pecan pie and pumpkin pie will be on our Thanksgiving table! Thanks for your demonstration of rolling out and flouring the pie crust! Wishing you and Melinda a blessed Thanksgiving!
Pecans are so expensive and sometimes I have substituted walnuts for the Pecans.. I loved it just as much
As the Pecans .. Thank You Tom and Melissa and hope you feel better Tom!!
Happy Thanksgiving !!
Love love love it cold with a dollop of extra creamy redi~whip!
Just finished watching…absolutely wonderful! Saying “Hey!” from the Back of the Bus crew.
I made this yesterday for Thanksgiving. It was delicious!! There were a few more pecans than a traditional recipe, but my family was happy about that! If anyone is wondering about the added cinnamon, the taste was very subtle and reminded me of the cinnamon pecans that are sold around Christmas in the mall. Thank you so much for all of your videos. I’m a teacher and it’s been my morning routine for the last couple of weeks to watch your videos while I get ready for school. 😊
Pecan Pie is my favorite, and I use the same recipe! Comes out perfect every time.
It looks so good. I am going to try it instead of getting it from Piccadilly Cafeteria. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for easy recipe, I’m watching you from New York, Thnks again I’m gonna make as we speak 😊
Thanks for your many great recipes! I love the Pillsbury pie crusts but have never rolled them out before placing in the plate. What a helpful idea! You guys are a great team!
It looks like a go to pecan pie 🥧. 😊
I love pecan pie!
I've been looking for this for a long time. Thanks for this one
Oh my! This pie looks absolutely delicious! Thank you!
I am definitely going to make this pie this season. Thank you for sharing your recipe and your ideas such as spraying your measuring cup with spray oil before measuring corn syrup and the detail of the cap of vanilla extract equivalent to a teaspoon. Thanks y'all and God Bless!
We hope you enjoy it. Thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
We live in Somerset, Ky and I love your cooking videos ‼️‼️and I told my granddaughter about your videos. She is learning how to cook and you are an excellent teacher. I don’t know what you taught but I wish I had had you for algebra, I might have passed it!!!😂😂😂
Can't help but wonder what genius came up with pecan pie 🥧 I can imagine them in the kitchen at winter ❄️ cold outside and a fire roaring and came up with it.
Made your pecan pie recipe for Thanksgiving and it was a hit with everyone! Thank you so much; the pie was delicious and hope you had great Thanksgiving!!!!!
Hi, I really love all your videos. I'm not a big fan of pecans unless they are very finely chopped. 😊 That pie looks delicious. I have never used the box pie shell, however, I do use the frozen that is already in a pie tin. This Thanksgiving I'm going to try the box pie shell. I'll give it a try. Mr. Tom, I also purchased the pie crust cover I think they will work better instead of aluminum foil that I've been using for years. Melissa, you do a great job with the camera. 😊
Just searched pecan pie ,youre the 1st video I've seen. I cant wait to make your pecan pie !
Thank you for going step by step for us !!
You are so welcome! We are happy to have you watching. We hope you will join us at the table all the time!
I love that mat for rolling out my pie shells and especially for cutting out biscuits. I just remodeled my kitchen and put quartz counters in. I won’t cut out biscuits on my counters. Of course I didn’t when I had Formica counters. This has got to be one more delicious pie. Thank you for sharing. Have a beautiful, peaceful day. ❤🙏🏻There was more than one piece of pie cut out of your pie… 🤔🤔😂
If you can make the crust a bit larger and when you flute it try to hook it over the edge it helps to prevent shrinkage when baking. Just a thought. I do enjoy all your videos. Thanks
Your PIE CRUST IS BEAUTIFUL!!
Good morning Tom & Melissa, Tom, how can you eat that pie in front of us? That happy face, well do enjoy. The pie turned out so delicious looking and the pie crust baked beautifully. This sure is a winner. I agree, the smaller pecans make the cutting of the pie much better. Eat with ice cream, just cream or just enjoy this is always welcome at the table. Thank you for sharing the tips with the flour on the pastry, and the great recipe. We do not celebrate Thanks Giving but there is no reason not to bake this Pecan Pie and be grateful. Thank you for sharing, many blessings. Do have a wonderful Thanks Giving day in any which way you are going to spend it. Kind regards.
I got my mat At Michael’s! They are great!
Nice to know where to locate them! Thanks for sharing that. .
Hi guys. I made your recipe today and oh my goodness! Best peacan tart ever! And the recipe is super easy. Thank you for sharing.❤
Pecan pie is one of my favorites it looks absolutely delicious a beautiful pie
I am from Crossville, TN. I live in Kentucky now. Glad you like the rolling pin.
Yummy 😋 delicious 😋
I just canned pecan pie filling yesterday, but used no eggs or Karo...used clear jel as thickening. If I can find a pressure canner at a reasonable price, I'll can some filling with all the frills. Always good to have things on hand to make a fast treat when needed. Thanks for sharing. When I get to can, I'll definitely use pieces instead of whole pecans 🥰
Pecan Pie Filling! What a wonderful staple to have in the pantry! Marvelous idea! Thanks so much for watching our channel. We appreciate it so much.
Warm pecan pie with whipped cream. Yum!
I was always afraid to make a pecan pie. Your tutorial and instructions make me feel a lot more comfortable in trying it now. Thanks for the recipe and wish me luck because I will be making this one. I have to also tell you that I love what you say at the end of your videos and I feel that I would be welcomed to "Come Sit At your Table."
Makes me miss my Mom's pies so much! Thanks for the reminder how yummy pecan pies are! Happy Thanksgiving to you both
I had been thinking about making a pecan pie for Thanksgiving, and I think that I will be using your recipe. I may use a technique that my mother taught me years ago to use 50% Karo Syrup and 50% Golden Sorghum Molasses. I live just across the Ohio River from Paducah, KY in Southern Illinois.
That pie crust looks perfect 👌!
I remember my first attempt at a pecan pie and this was before the internet. It didn't set very well, still good Like you said very little or no jiggle. As my taste refined, I use light syrup and add molasses for a medium dark color. Most store bought ones use light syrup and IMHO they are lacking but the dark syrup is a little much, I've found a middle ground. Great video will help many young cooks this Thanksgiving.
Looks scrumptious 😋
You guys are fantastic. I LOVE your recipes. Joy
I love watching your videos, I work evenings and when I get back home, I watch one of your videos. I was wondering if you could make a cut out cookie recipe for the holidays? 🎄
I just wanted to thank you for sharing your delicious recipes. I made the one with the cream cheese and pastry roll however I tweeted it just a bit. I added a can of apple pie mix , spreading the apples evenly over the cream cheese then the rest of the mix . It was simply DELICIOUS !!!
I've searched so many recipes and found you!!!! My pie was a HIT absolutely agree the dark corn syrup gives it that mmmm i want more taste thanks for sharing💗💗💗💯💯💯
Making this for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, thank you so much!
This vid came at the perfect time. I have pecans & can whip out a crust in no time! Have a blessed day 🌈💚🙏💚🌈
I have got to try this Pecan Pie recipe! Thank you 😊
Tom and Melissa,I hope you both have a blessed Thanksgiving. Melissa is a lucky lady to have you cook so well! I’m an RN and nasal Flonase might help with your allergies too!! It’s over the counter and there is a cheaper generic one at Target. ❤❤ Karin. PS I really enjoy your show!!
I will have to say,to make this pie.... looks very easy to do. You are both amazing....Thank You for being here and showing us how to do what you do.....
Thanks so much 😊 We really appreciate the nice comment. In our opinion, this is a very easy recipe to put together for the holiday. Happy Thanksgiving!
