Praise the Lord! Pecan Pie


Evangelicals want a piece of the pie, and you will, too.  It's so easy to be good!

1 cup light corn syrup
3 eggs
2 Tbsp. butter, melted
1 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. bourbon
1 tsp. vanilla extract
pinch salt
1-1/2 cups whole pecans 
1 9-inch unbaked pie crust


Heat oven to 350ºF.  


In medium bowl mix corn syrup, eggs, butter, sugar, bourbon, vanilla and salt.  Stir in pecans; pour into crust.


Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes or until center springs back when lightly touched with finger.  Cool completely on wire rack before serving.


Tip: 
Cover edges with foil if crust becomes too brown while baking.
