Pecan Pie without Corn Syrup Recipe

This easy pecan pie without corn syrup recipe is sure to please anyone during the holiday season.

Pecan Pie Without Corn Syrup Recipe

If you like pecan pie but don’t want the corn syrup in it, here is a pecan pie without corn syrup recipe.

Pecan pie seems to me a perfect dessert to serve in the winter season. It is impossible to not like it for the rich nutty taste of pecans and all the good stuff that goes in the pie.

As you know, the typical southern style American pecan pie has a lot of corn syrup in the recipes. Although the jarred corn syrup we use in the pecan pie has no fructose corn styrup in it, some people are still hesitant to use it in the pie. Therefore this pecan pie without corn syrup recipe is a way to go for those who wants to avoid it.

Here is a pecan pie without corn syrup recipe that I like to use. That is to say, it is somewhat similar to the old fashioned way of making pecan pie which I love. You will be surprised how good this pie taste.

How to store pecans or other nuts

Nuts like pecans or walnuts can go rancid if not stored properly. Once you open a bag of pecans, keep you nuts in an airtight bag or container and store in the freezer to keep its freshness longer.

For the pie crust

Get your pie crust ready and chill. You can make the crust up to a day before and let it chill in the fridge. Check out the most flaky and soft pie crust recipe that I use. You will be glad that you tried.

For the pecan filling

While you are preheating the oven, toast the chopped pecan pieces in the oven for 5-6 minutes. Make sure you don’t burn them.

Beat 3 eggs, and add the milk, apple cider vinegar and vanilla extract. The vinegar will lighten up the overly rich taste of butter and pecan. Trust me. You won’t taste the vinegar at all.

Pour in the prepared pie crust. You don’t need to par-bake the crust for this recipe. Decorate the top with pecan halves.

Here is a trick that I use to get the nice golden crust when I bake pies. Get a piece of aluminum foil and cut out a hole with 8-inch in diameter. Then lay it loosely on top of pie. By doing so, you can avoid the pie crust being overly baked, and help creating the beautiful golden crust. I put a baking pan underneath the pie pan to carry in and out of oven easily.

Bake the pie in a preheated 375˚F oven for 50-60 minutes. It is important to remove the foil half way of baking so that the crust will get golden. I removed min after 30 minutes.

When the center of the pie seems slightly jiggly, the pie is ready to come out of oven. Make sure to let the pie cool completely on a cooling rack.

Notes

In order to get the nice golden brown color on the crust, brush the edges of crust with egg wash lightly. Get a piece foil and cut out a hole with 8-inch diameter. Tent the top of pie with the foil loosely and bake. Remove the foil after the first 25-30 minutes of baking.
