Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 cup corn syrup light or dark
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 deep frozen pie crust
  • 6 ½ oz package pecan pieces or halves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the frozen pie crust on a baking sheet.
  • Whisk eggs in a large bowl until smooth, then mix in sugar, melted butter, corn syrup, and vanilla until combined.
  • Spread pecans evenly inside the crust.
  • Pour the filling over the pecans and bake 50–60 minutes, until the filling is set and the crust is golden. The center should jiggle slightly but not appear liquid.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing so the filling firms up.
