How to Make Sensational Southern Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, maple syrup, corn syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Stir in the pecans until evenly coated.
  4. Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust.
  5. Bake for 50-70 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. A knife inserted near the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
  6. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly and prevents a messy pie!
