Mom's Pecan Pie

"Another old family recipe. My great grandparents had a pecan ranch down in Texas until the Depression hit, so pecans have been popular in our family for a long time. This recipe is the culmination of a century of pecan pie baking and tasting!"

  1. Absolutely delicious! Decadent, easy, and a make-again! Thank you. ^_^
     
  2. Excellent pecan pie. It's very easy to make and has a light texture to it. Recipe easily scales down to one pie which is what I did. Very nice, will make again.
     
  3. Another great pecan pie recipe that we have enjoyed! The filling is a very light custard texture with a bit of a buttery rich flavor. I only made one pie and when I removed it from the oven the filling was quite high, I was afraid I did something wrong. No worries, after cooling the filling fit in the pie crust perfectly. A quick and wonderful pie!
