Ingredients

1 unbaked pie crust

3 eggs

1 cup light corn syrup

2/3 cup packed brown sugar

2 tablespoons melted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups pecan halves

Directions

Adjust oven rack to lower middle position and preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Roll pie dough into a circle roughly 12-inches in diameter. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Using a pair of kitchen shears, trim the edges of the pie dough until it overhangs the edge of the pie plate by 1/2 an inch all the way around. Fold edges of pie dough down, tucking it under itself, working your way all the way around the pie plate until everything is well tucked. Use the forefinger on your left hand and the thumb and forefinger on your right hand to crimp the edges.
