Walnut Pie

Walnut Pie
Prep 15 min Cook 40 min Serves 8 Source

Ingredients

  • 1 Pie crust homemade ( or store-bought)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • ¾ Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 ½ Teaspoon Vanilla
  • ¾ Cup Light Corn Syrup
  • ¼ Cup Unsalted Butter (melted)
  • 1 ½ Cup Chopped Walnuts

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400° and place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven.

  2. 2

    Place the rolled pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and either flute the edges or make a decorative edge. Place in the fridge until you are ready to bake the pie.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl beat together the eggs, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, and corn syrup. Stir in the walnuts and add the filling to the chilled pie crust.

  4. 4

    Bake for 15 minutes at 400° and then lower the heat to 350° and bake for another 35-40 minutes, until the center of the pie is slightly jiggly but set. If the top of the pie or the crust seems to be getting too dark too fast, place a sheet of foil gently over the whole pie to keep it from burning while the pie finishes baking.

  5. 5

    Cool the pie to room temperature and serve.
