    Pecan Pie Recipe

    This is my first attempt in making and eating a pecan pie. I am telling you, this is a must try pie at least once in a life time. It is too good to resist. I am sure everyone who eats this will love it for sure.

    About Pecan Pie Recipe

    Pecan pie is sticky and moist pie which has a nutty crunch from the pecan nuts and the pastry is buttery and crumbly.

    I am in a whole thanksgiving mood and cooking up a storm for this thanksgiving. Mostly I am trying to cover as much recipe as i can and this was my first recipe on the list. I ordered pecans from amazon and made this as well a pecan bar too. Both were addictive.

    This recipe calls for corn syrup, if you don't have that you could use liquid glucose as well. This is an important ingredient because it makes the pecan pie set and makes it sliceable.

        This looks lovely! Pecan Pie is one of my favorites and I have been intending to make it. Can you please share where did you get the pecans from? I looked up at Amazon and they were pretty expensive out there!
