47 Reviews of Pecan Pie

Having never made Pecan Pie before, but wanting to forever, I chose this recipe for my first attempt. This was delicious and easy enough to make. But would make sure to remove the pan from the heat before adding the eggs (beginners mistake) Second pie I beat the eggs, salt, and vanilla together before adding to the hot mixture...came out smooth and creamy then. Very good pie, keeping this recipe to make again. Oh, second pie in freezer, first pie half gone and it is only lunch time.

    We made 2 recipes of Pecan Pie. Most preferred the other one. Comments on this was that it wasn't too sweet and it was a dark, rich brown filling. Even though it was voted #2, I noticed it all disappeared on Thanksgiving day!!! LOL

    My husband's one and only dessert weakness is pecan pie. I have been trying to find the perfect recipe for him, but have not had much success - until now!!! This pie is wonderful and it's definitely because of the sugar. It had a nice custardy consistency and was not cloyingly sweet like pies made with corn syrup. Five gold stars for you, Ann! Thank you!

    Very tasty! I adore pecan pie and this will be my new "signature" recipe. I agree with GiGi, 45 min cook time was too much.

    This was so easy and absolutely delicious. The only problem I had was with the cooking time, with a newer oven, 45 minutes burned the top slightly, next time I'll try 30 mins. Thanks for posting this recipe!

    This was the first time I had ever made Pecan Pie. I love the fact that there is no corn syrup in it! It was so easy, It made me wonder why I had never made Pecan pie before! I made one before Thanksgiving to "try it out" before serving it to guests. YUM! Everyone loved it!

    This was good, but it didn't hold its goo very well. I really liked finding a pecan pie w/o corn syrup, and this was so easy to make. I didn't cool the marg/br sug mixture before I added the egg, but maybe that should be in the directions--my egg started cooking when it hit the hot mixture. I cooled it as fast as I could and added the other ingredients, but I wonder if that affected the outcome. The inside of the pie didn't hold together for me; it spilled into the pan once it was cooled (overnight)and cut. I wonder if it is because I used 3/4 c margarine and should have kept it at 1/2 c? But the taste is so yummy, and got raves from my dh, who is making it disappear quite fast.

    Delicious Pecan pie. Everyone raved about this pecan pie because it wasn't as sweet as other pecan pies. My Dh is a diabetic & loves pecan pie, so I made it using Splenda brown sugar(so I used 1 cup splenda brown sugar instead of 2 cups regular brown sugar).Then made as stated. I covered it with foil to keep it from getting to brown & baked it for 55 minutes, It was perfect. Thank you Ann, for this yummy pecan pie recipe.

    Like others, this was the first time I made a pecan pie with brown sugar. Well, I decided to try it because it looked different. I like pecan pie...but i hate the gooeyness and over sweetness of regular pecan pie. Made and and I have FALLEN IN LOVE!! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    Very first pie to disappear out of 3 that I made. I did go with the 1 c. margarine, but that was too much, took longer to bake, and the excess butter was bubbling over. Next time I'll use about 3/4c. margarine instead Thank You ann hugo!
