I used to be scared of pecan pie when i was a little girl.

Recipe Summary Traditional Pecan Pie In A Jar

Traditional Pecan Pie in a Jar has a deeply toasted, sweet, luxurious flavor. Just break through the caramelized, crispy pecan topping to expose the amber-colored rich filling and flaky crust inside. Serve with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Ingredients | Bourbon Pecan Pie Recipe Food Network

2 cups pecan halves, broken into coarse pieces

1 cup white sugar

¾ cup light corn syrup

¾ cup dark corn syrup

4 eggs

¼ cup butter, melted

1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

1 pinch salt

8 half pint canning jars with lids and rings

cooking spray

2 unbaked 9-inch pie crusts

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread pecans on a baking sheet.

Bake pecans in the preheated oven until lightly toasted, 6 to 8 minutes. Cool to room temperature.

Bring sugar, light corn syrup, and dark corn syrup to a boil in a saucepan; boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly, about 10 minutes.

Whisk eggs in a large bowl until frothy. Add syrup mixture slowly, whisking constantly to prevent eggs from curdling. Whisk in butter, vanilla extract, and salt until batter is smooth.

Spray 8 small jars with cooking spray. Press pieces of pie crust dough into bottom and sides of jars. Add a layer of toasted pecans to each jar. Spoon in batter, leaving 1/4 inch rim at top.

Bake in preheated oven until darkened on the top, about 40 minutes. Cool to room temperature before serving.

Check jars while baking at 25 minutes; cover with aluminum foil if tops are darkening too quickly.
