Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your pie crust by placing it in a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, eggs, sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  3. Stir in the pecan halves, ensuring they are evenly coated with the mixture.
Baking
  1. Pour the pecan mixture into the prepared pie crust and spread the pecans evenly.
  2. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown.
  3. Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

For an extra rich flavor, you can toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the filling. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
