Southern Pecan Pie image

The recipe for this Southern specially originated in Alabama. Its amber filling is stubbed with pecan pieces to add an interesting texture to this rich dessert. Serve it in small wedges with coffee. I found this recipe in My Great Recipes. I have not tried this I'm posting it for a request.

I've made this pecan pie recipe several times and it always comes out perfect. The crust is flaky and the filling is rich and creamy. I love that I can use my own homemade pie crust or a store-bought one. This recipe is a keeper!
