Best Southern Pecan Pie -- Different image

Same flavor, but not the ooey-gooeyness. Uses brown sugar instead of karo syrup. I checked Zaar and couldn't find the same recipe. The USA southeast area has used this recipe for years. It is a Blue Ribbon WINNER! I would not go back to the syrup recipe. This makes 2 pies using a regular size pie shell and freezes well if you want to freeze one. Butter is best, but you can use margarine. (It is important to use the cornmeal in this recipe.) I prefer my pecans in broken pieces because the slices will cut better. Easy to make and easy to travel to a potluck. You'll be glad you tried this delightful pie!!

This pecan pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved it. I'll probably try making it again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pecan pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The filling is so rich and creamy, and the crust is perfectly flaky. I'll definitely be making this again!

I've tried many pecan pie recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The filling is perfectly gooey and the crust is crispy and flaky. I highly recommend this recipe!
