    I made this for Thanksgiving and every single person who tried it said it was the best pecan pie of their life. They've already requested I make it for Christmas too. MAKE THIS PIE!

    This is the best pecan pie recipe i have ever tried! It is amazing! I honestly think using corn syrup makes it too sweet and using maple and honey is the best option.
    I have made this around 5 times now, it's i have gotten very good feedback (i didn't wanna use the word amazing again, ha 😅)

    Many decades ago I was hired to work at the legendary Pontchartain Hotel in New Orleans. At a luncheon I asked on uptown dowager , "May I bring you a slice of our Peecan Pie?" She montioned me over with her finger and whispered. "Young man, a peecan is what we put under our bed. Peacan is the lovely pie you are offering."

    That is a classy pie with all my favorite ingredients: butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, honey, pecans, bourbon, no cheap corn syrup. Last winter I ate honey. I toaster pecans in maple syrup, and I ordered in and ate bourbon pecans. And I eat butter all year round. Your pie looks and sounds delicious.

    I always chop the pecans or use pieces bought from the store. That greatly increases the actual amount of nuts you can fit in the shell. Also, in this day of reduced family gatherings, I tend to do a combination pecan-pumpkin for just two of us.

    I am pretty much a sugar addict, yet, I have always found pecan pie to be overly sweet for me as a pie. I have also found most sweet potato pies too bland. So I decided 35 years ago to mix the 2 together and for me it's perfection. This is my favourite Thanksgiving pie and many I serve it to agree.

    Been looking for the perfect pecan pie recipe for a while now. It's the kind of pie that I've been finding difficult to make from scratch as good as some store bought ones actually. Recipes with corn syrup have been underwhelming. I think that personally, I need maple syrup in my pecan pie and, this recipe is now the one to beat in my book.

  • @DrabberPlot7000

    Pecans are so expensive in my country. But it's one of my favorite nuts, 😂along with pistachios & hazelnuts. Although walnuts are quite affordable here. None of the nuts are grown here but are imported, but they are the best tasting nuts ever! I just love them in pies & cookies! 💙

    If you want a hint of chocolate, borrow Rose Levy Berenbaum’s idea & paint the bottom of the pie crust with melted chocolate. A bitter chocolate would help cut the sweetness.

    So, I made this recipe, and the pies turned out great! But on Thanksgiving, I cut into one of the deep dish pie, and while cutting it, liquid came out. What did I do wrong? The thinner crust pies came out great, and the filled did not turn into liquid. I made the pies on Wednesday at midnight. I placed one of the pies in the refrigerator to see if the liquid turns back into jelly. Help!

      it would work nicely - add about a tablespoon or to taste. i use maple sugar for my madeleines but it's proper expensive and if youre already adding maple syrup I cannot see that the maple sugar would accentuate the flavor - id just add light and dark sugar instead.
