Janis Dohmann's Pecan Pie
ingredients:
2 Eggs, Slightly Beaten
1 Cup Light Karo Syrup
1/4 Cup Sugar
2 Tablespoons Flour
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1-1/4 Cups Broken Texas Native Pecans
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Spread pecans in an unbaked 9-inch pie shell.
Mix remaining ingredients and pour over pecans.
Bake slowly at 375 degrees F. untill done,
about 1 hour.
Tips:
1. Cover the edges of the pie crust with tin foil about halfway through baking to prevent crust from getting too brown before the pie is done.
2. For best results, be sure to use only Texas native pecans. If you insist on using hybrid pecans or pecans grown in some other state, dont complain to us if you aren't happy with the way your pie turns out.
3. Note that the recipe calls for Light Karo syrup. Many people use dark syrup in their pecan pies but we find that this gives the pies a rather strong taste and a darker less appealing texture. Stay with the light syrup.
