I love taking any short cuts I can around the holidays, when I have a lot of different dishes to prepare. Trust me, the filling of this pie is the star of the show, so it doesn’t matter too much what kind of crust you use!

The steps for this recipe are so easy! Here’s how to do it: If you are using a prepared frozen pie crust, place cookie sheet in oven and preheat oven as directed. Pour filling into frozen crust and bake on preheated cookie sheet.

The pie is done when center reaches 200°F. Tap center surface of pie lightly – it should spring back when done. If pie crust is over-browning, cover edges with foil.

You can enjoy your pie with ice cream on top, whipped cream, or on it’s own. The crunchy pecans, paired with the sweet filling, is guaranteed to be a hit. If you don’t bake your pie long enough the center will not set up, creating a loose filling which will ooze when sliced.

Make sure to bake your pie until the center is set and no longer jiggles. When the center of the pie if set and no longer jiggles. A knife inserted into the center of the pie should come out clean. If it’s not set up add a few more minutes in the oven and check again.

If you over-bake your pecan pie it will crack at the top, or if you cool your pie too quickly. Allow the pie to cool at room temperature before refrigerating.

You should store your pecan pie airtight in the refrigerator. This will keep it fresh for the longest as well as keep it firm enough for sharp slices. Simply cover your pie plate with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

Out of the refrigerator at room temperature your pie will be fine for up to a few hours. Pecan pie is a great pie to freeze and thaw out when ready to use. Cover your pie in plastic wrap, and then again with aluminum foil for best freshness.

Allow the pie to thaw in the refrigerator before serving. This pecan pie is a classic old-fashioned dessert that’s perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas. It has the best combination of sweet and salty!
