Easy as Pie, Pecan Pie
My husband, Chris, is VERY fond of Eckert’s Bakery’s Pecan Pie but I was lacking the perfect recipe for baking from my home. Certainly we can grab one from Eckert’s bakery and it is very hard to upstage but I was determined to make one that could compare. A few winters ago, I collected as many pecan recipes as I could find and baked a new one every weekend. (Yes really I did!!)
The pie recipes ranged in amounts of butter and types of sweeteners including brown sugar, granulated sugar, molasses etc. Chris provided feedback with each test recipe about the sweetness and the textures but Eckert’s Bakery Pecan Pie still upstaged my baking!

Eat well this winter, Angie
Ingredients
1 cup Dark Karo® Corn Syrup3 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
½ cup granulated vanilla sugar (*see recipe below or substitute regular granulated sugar)
2 Tbs. butter, melted
1 tsp. Pure Vanilla Extract
6 oz. pecans (about a cup and a half)
1 (9-inch) unbaked or frozen Eckert’s pie crust
Preheat oven to 350°F. Place pecans in the pie crust. In a medium bowl, whisk together corn syrup, eggs, sugars, butter and vanilla. Pour filling into pie crust. Place pie on a baking sheet and bake on center rack for 50 to 60 minutes.
Baking Note: Pie is done if you can lightly tap the surface of the pie and it springs back. The pie will slice cleaner if you allow it cool for 2 hours after baking. However, this doesn’t always happen in my house!
Vanilla Granulated Sugar
I make my own vanilla sugar and keep it on hand in the cabinet for special desserts, coffee flavoring etc. To make vanilla sugar, cut a vanilla bean in half lengthwise and place it in a jar or reseal-able glass container. Pour in 2 cups of granulated sugar. Allow vanilla flavors to blend into the sugar for at least 1 week. Use as you would regular sugar to add a hint of vanilla!No time to bake this week?
