Im not a lover of pecan pie because of the corn syrup taste so I eager to try this recipe for DBF birthday treat. It was out of this world delish! I used 1/2 cup butter, 1 1/2 cups brown sugar and 2 cups pecans, mixed pieces and whole. It did take a little longer to bake and did need covered towards the end again, but I took it out of the oven when it was still a little jiggly in the middle and as it cooled it was perfect! Great recipe Ann, thanks!

The pie tastes wonderful and I love that it doesn't have any corn syrup in it. My only complaint (and the reason it didn't get 5 stars) is that it really, really calls for a Deep Dish Pie Crust instead of a regular one. The first time I made it, the filling overflowed from the pie crust both on my counter AND in the oven. I assumed that it was user error. I just made the pie again and actually had to transfer the filling to a deep dish crust after it once again rolled out of the regular crust and all over my counter.<br/>So as long as you use a deep dish crust, you're fine! Other than that, delicious, flavorful and much healthier than the corn syrup options.

I made this yummy pie for the family for Christmas 2011 and i loved it! I am not usually a big fan of pecan pie because i do not like the corn syrup filling but I loved that this recipe uses brown sugar instead. I made this with a shortbread crust and it was a fabulous addition to the dessert table. The recipe was easy to follow and I will definitely be making it again-thanks for a great recipe!
