This pecan pie filling comes together in 10 minutes, no joke. I am usually so focused on the dinner that I will be serving that dessert is always an after thought if it even happens. After realizing how easy it really can be, I now have a go-to last minute dessert recipe.

If you’re not in a hurry, you can obviously make your own pie crust which is always preferred.

Ingredients:

• 1 frozen pie crust
• 1 cup pecans
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 Tbsp. light brown sugar
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 3/4 tsp. pure vanilla
• 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 3 eggs

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Chop pecans and add them to the pie crust in a single layer.
3. Mix remaining ingredients in a large bowl until combined.
4. Pour over chopped pecans.
5. Loosely cover pie with tin foil.  Bake for 30 minutes covered.
6. Remove tin foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until center is “set.”
