How to Make Country Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one 14-inch circle of pie crust. Gently transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
  3. Trim and crimp the edges of the crust. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, eggs, brown sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
  5. Gradually whisk in the flour and vanilla extract until smooth.
  6. Stir in 2 cups of pecans.
  7. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  8. Arrange the remaining pecans evenly over the top of the filling.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges loosely with aluminum foil.
  10. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. For best results, cool for at least 4 hours or overnight.
