102 Reviews of Pecan Pie

From: Rushed 4 Time

On Sep 11, 2004

When I found this website, one of the things my husband begged me to find was a recipe for pecan pie. Based on reviews, I chose this recipe, and it looks like I made the right choice! I don't like pecan pie, but according to my husband, this recipe makes THE perfect pie. He even banned me from trying to make any other pecan pie recipes, so it must be good! I used Mean Chef's classic pie crust, #26205, for this pie. I'm telling you, if you are a novice, and want to make an impressive pie that takes little effort or skill, try this one... it really does come out looking like what you see at the store. Also, I really appreciate you mentioning to bake until a knife comes out clean. At 45 minutes, a knife came out covered in goop; had you not mentioned to test it, I would have assumed it was done. Mine took an extra 15 minutes, not sure why. Anyway, my husband loved it so much he darn near inhaled it!

    Although I have a really good pecan pie recipe I've used for years, I tried this one just for a change. It was delicious! I followed the recipe exactly except for adding a small amount of apple cider vinegar to mellow out the sweetness just a tiny bit. It took about 20 minutes longer to cook than stated, but that didn't cause any problems. Now I can't decide which recipe to use for Thanksgiving. Decisions, decisions...

    For baking...bake in very hot oven 450 for 10 min;reduce heat to 350 bake for 35 min. Or until knife inserted into center comes out clean.

    I'm not a pecan pie lover, but my fiance loves it. I made this for him and he ate the entire thing by himself. I have never made pie before, but this was such a success.

    Great recipe that the fiance and in-laws loved! It took mine an hour to cook, and I left the foil on the crust for the first 40 minutes due to the extended time. This will become a holiday staple!!

    This was a very good pie, I will make it again and again.11/18/06 update. I've made this pie a butt load of times and it's great. I've started using roasted & salted peacans and it's even better. Thanks jodigirl. From brewhead

    Turned out perfectly both times I made it. I added a couple tablespoons of Bourbon to give it a twist. Definately a keeper!

    I made this for Thanksgiving and it got rave reviews! I don't like pecans, so, I didn't personally have any, but I can say that is was very easy to throw together and all the people that ate it gave it 5 stars! Thanks for a great recipe, Jodi!
