How to Make Caramel Pecan Pie
- In a heavy-bottom saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup honey, and ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring gently only until the butter is melted and the sugars are dissolved. Do not over-stir.
- Continue heating, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer. This indicates the soft-crack stage.
- Carefully remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream and 2 cups pecan halves. Be cautious as the mixture will be very hot.
- Pour the caramel pecan mixture into a 9-inch pre-baked pie crust.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly and enhances the flavor.
