Crustless Pecan Pie

This crustless pecan pie is a simple dessert that still delivers the classic sweet, nutty flavor everyone loves without the extra work of a crust. Made with everyday ingredients like eggs, light corn syrup, sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and plenty of pecans, it bakes up rich and gooey with a tender set once cooled.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, corn syrup, sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  • Stir in pecans until evenly distributed.
  • Pour mixture into prepared pie dish, spreading pecans evenly across the surface.
  • Bake for 45–50 minutes, until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. A knife inserted near the center should come out mostly clean. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
