Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 10 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 9-inch refrigerated, unbaked deep-dish pie crust I buy these in a two-pack
  • 1 cup Karo® Light Corn Syrup
  • 3 eggs divided
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups pecan halves (6 ounces)
  • 2 apples peeled and chopped into ½ inch pieces, gala, fuji, or any favorite red
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar or granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine the dough from both pie crusts and roll out to make one, thicker crust. Gently press into a deep-dish pie pan and fold excess dough back toward the center of the dish to create a nice, thick edge. 
  • Fill pie crust with pecans.
  • In a large bowl stir together corn syrup, eggs, sugar, butter, and vanilla.
  • Stir in apples.
  • Pour filling into unbaked pie crust (over the pecans).
  • Whisk together remaining 1 egg and 1 tablespoon milk. Brush the egg wash over the edge of the pie crust, then sprinkle with coarse sugar. 
  • Bake on center rack of preheated oven for 60-70 minutes until pie is set. (Center of pie should reach 200 degrees, or check doneness for tapping the center of the pie lightly - it should spring back!)
  • Cool completely (about 2 hours) on a cooling rack before slicing and serving.
  • Reheat individual slices in the microwave if desired and top with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
