"This recipe comes from the family restaurant (now closed) and the crust comes from Logan M. Be sure not to over bake--the center will set up and be magically delicious gooey-ness."

1 ¹⁄₂ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
¹⁄₂ cup coconut oil (or shortening or other preferred fat)
4 -7 tablespoons cold water
3 eggs, beaten
¹⁄₂ cup brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup pecans, chopped coarsely
¹⁄₂ cup white sugar
¹⁄₄ cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla

directions

CRUST:
Mix sugar, salt, coconut oil, and flour to create a crumbly mixture.
Add cold water until a ball forms. Do NOT over mix.
Press dough into the bottom and 2 inches up the sides of a spring form pan.
FILLING:
Mix thoroughly eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, chopped pecans, sugar, butter, and vanilla.
Pour filling into pie shell.
OPTIONAL: Top pie with pecan halves, forming several decorative concentric circles.
Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour.
NOTE: It will still be a little jiggly in the center if you shake the pan--this does not mean it isn't done. Do NOT over bake.
Allow pie to cool completely before serving.
Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
