Zubereitung von Favorite Pecan Pie
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and ½ cup light corn syrup.
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly (about 10 minutes).
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Gradually whisk the egg mixture into the cooled butter-sugar-corn syrup mixture until well combined.
Pour the filling into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust. Arrange pecan halves in concentric circles on top, or sprinkle with 1 ½ cups chopped pecans.
Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for 50-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. If using a glass pie plate, reduce baking time to 45-50 minutes.
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or cold!
