Ingredients

Crust

  • cups (192g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 tablespoons shortening
  • 5 tablespoons (71g) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into cubes
  • 3-5 tablespoons ice-cold water
  • 2 teaspoons white vinegar

Filling

  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 cup (340g) light corn syrup
  • cup (75g) melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature and beaten
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

Crust

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  • Add in shortening and butter and mix together using a pastry blender until crumbs appear.
  • Add water and vinegar. Stir around and make it into a ball.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a large circle. Place the dough into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, cutting away any excess crust. Place in the refrigerator as you prepare the filling.

Filling

  • In a medium bowl mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, vanilla, and eggs. Whisk until well blended.
  • Add chopped pecans to the bottom of your prepared pie crust.
  • Pour your filling mixture over the top.
  • Cover the pie with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 40-50 minutes, if needed, or until the center is set and not overly jiggly.
  • Place pie on the counter or in the refrigerator to cool for several hours before serving.
