Take note
Be aware that this recipe may cause uncontrollable pig noises of delight. Prepare your taste buds for an overload of pecan goodness.

1

Prepare the Pie Crust

Start by making or purchasing a 9-inch pie crust. If you're feeling pig-headed, you can make your own crust using a combination of all-purpose flour, salted butter, and a touch of sugar. Roll out the dough and transfer it to a pie dish, pressing it gently against the sides. Keep it in the fridge to keep it cool while we move on to the next step.

2

Blend the Pecan Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of corn syrup, 3 beaten eggs, 1 cup of white sugar, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and, of course, the star of the show, 1½ cups of chopped pecans. Mix everything well until it's as smooth as a pig's belly. Sweet!

3

Fill the Pie Crust

Take the chilled pie crust out of the fridge and carefully pour the pecan filling into it. Make sure the pecans are evenly distributed like a well-organized pig pen. If you want to get fancy, you can arrange a few extra pecan halves on top to make it look like a piggy parade. We won't judge.

4

Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once ready, place the pie on the middle rack and let it work its magic for about 55-60 minutes. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get too browned. That would be a burnt bacon disaster!

5

Cool and Indulge

When the time is up and the pie has a golden hue, remove it from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Oh, the tantalizing aroma! Once it's cooled down, slice yourself a pig-sized piece, add a dollop of whipped cream if you're feeling extra naughty, and take a bite. Mmm... prepare to be whisked away to pecan paradise!
