We-Can't-Have-Thanksgiving-Without-This Pecan Pie

About the recipe

This pie browns very easily so watch it and cover with aluminum if necessary during the last minutes of baking. If you are baking two or more pies at the same time, mix each separately as it is very difficult to divide the mixture.
