Photo: "Loveless" Pecan Pie Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups pecan pieces
- 1 (10-inch) pie crust, pre-baked
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 6 teaspoons unsalted butter, melted
- Cinnamon Pecan Caramel, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Put pecans in pre-baked pie shell. In a large bowl whisk the remaining ingredients together until smooth. Pour the custard mixture over the nuts and bake the pie until the filling puffs and rises above the edges of the pie shell, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove the pie from oven and let it cool completely before serving. Drizzle the pie with Cinnamon Pecan Caramel and serve.
Cinnamon Pecan Caramel:
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Mix all the ingredients together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.

I just made this for Thanksgiving dinner. I started to worry after I committed to making it because I was worried it would not be a success. I was wrong, it was amazing! Everybody loved it, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly.

Some notes on this recipe: I have a copy of Southern Country Cooking from the Loveless Cafe and I noted a couple of differences from this recipe and the one that in the Recipe Book. 1. The book recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups pecans (halves or pieces. 2. The book calls for 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted. 3. The book calls for a cook time of 35 to 40 minutes at 375 degrees. I hope this helps. The pie is really good at the restuarant and I would hate for your efforts to fail because of a bad recipe. If you have tried it and failed, give it a try again. Happy Cookin' Y'all.
