How to Make Pecan Pie No Corn Syrup

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
  3. Add 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/4 cup granulated sugar; blend until well combined.
  4. Whisk in 3 large eggs until light and foamy.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy) and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or substitute with 1/4 cup rice flour for gluten-free) and whisk until completely smooth.
  7. Beat for 1-2 minutes until the sugar is no longer grainy.
  8. Stir in 2 cups pecan halves until evenly coated.
  9. Pour the filling into your prepared pie crust (9-inch).
  10. Optional: Arrange pecans in a decorative pattern on top.
  11. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until the pecans are golden brown and the filling is set. The filling will sink slightly as it cools.
  12. Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy plain, or with whipped cream or ice cream!
