Dear, Dear Linda: Thank you for tuning me in to this amazing pecan pie recipe. My niece followed your instructions carefully, watching your video a few times. You are a teacher, and you always tell us why you do what you do. My niece combined by hand, used the right ingredients, included a fantastic vanilla that I have. She lightly toasted the pecans in the oven. You weren't exaggerating. This was absolutely the best pecan pie I have ever had! it's my dad's favourite pie, and he was thrilled with it. And it's so easy....so neat that you got the recipe from a Dear Abby column. Our only regret was that my niece made the pastry using the cuisinart recipe. that didn't turn out so great. next time, I'll use the roll out tender flake pastry sheets, or make tarts for Christmas. Tarts really do make the most sense anyways. I made the sirloin roast to your instructions. it was larger than I thought. just over 3 lbs. I am a cook poultry, pork, and fish cook. I barbeque steaks to perfection, but I'm not known for my beef roasts. It was so fabulous...I had no idea such a lean cut could be that tender. even the skinny ends that were well done were tender. it was otherwise pink throughout. So delicious. There should of been leftovers, but my son and husband devoured it. several hours before roasting, I grabbed a package of liptons onion soup with garlic and mixed it with olive oil to make a paste, then rubbed it all over the roast. I made sure it was room temperature before placing in the oven. I wanted to carry the roast in and out of the oven myself, so I used a Pyrex instead of one of my nice cast iron pans. too heavy. I made a bridge out of large carrots to lift the roast up. So, we had wonderful roast carrots with the beef and potatoes. I was tired yesterday, so I didn't mske gravy, and I used instant mashed potatoes. I can't peel potatoes right now. with the instant potatoes, I used butter and half and half cream. they tasted like the real deal. Thank You for all your advice. I haven't regretted making any of your recipes and using your techniques! Sending a huge God Bless You, from Saskatoon! ~ Julia

I made your pecan pie for Thanksgiving. It was my first time baking and eating a pecan pie. It baked and set perfectly. My husband and I both agree that it is delicious.

Hi! I have been doing this mini pecan pies for the last 3 years. My family loves them! Thank u for posting this. deliciousness!!!!

I never liked pecan pie due to it being so sweet. I made this pie for thanksgiving and it turned out absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing this pie recipe.

My 1st time baking my own pie & I used this recipe..it's now my go to! Delicious! Filling is just right!

Truly the best pecan pie recipe ever made! I always use this! Everyone loves loves it...

I am so excited I found this recipe! I have been watching KZfaq for an hour and yours is the best I've seen!

You are awesome..a hoot..and a blessing to everyone watching your videos..Thank you. After my many years of cooking and baking at our Inns..I appreciate what it takes to share your talents with others. It is fun and sharing your recipes is like opening your heart to others. God bless!

I just stumbled across your channel and I subscribed. Pecan pie is one of my favorites. Making individual ones makes perfect sense. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video. I have been making your recipe for YEARS! I've even taught it to my children.

I've done those with pumpkin too! I would put a couple of them in those cute cellophane christmas bags with a bow and give to friends as a gift.

Thanks very much for this recipe, it looks wonderful. I currently have a recipe for a pecan pie that is absolutely wonderful. I got it from my ex sister in law who got it from her mother in law who lives in Georgia and it is fantastic, but I can't wait to try this one and I bet it may beat the other one. Thanks for doing this video and sharing this recipe. I miss dear abby, I grew up reading her column. Wonderful days back then, the world isn't the same anymore, matter of fact it is a lot scary.

Thank you Miss Linda for this lovely recipe!!..I am planing to make it ..I love the way you present your recipes;so relaxing so honest and so sweet..Not wonder your recipes become real home made gourmet cooking ..God bless you!!.. I am glad I see your video.. I cant wait to start making Mis Linda home made pecan pie...THANK YOU !!..

Ok well have to make this for sure. Love pecan pie. Thanks for recipe.

I can't imagine a world where pecan pie doesn't get eaten.

THIS is the best recipe!!! I love it! Thanks Linda❤

love it ..make this one

I'm making this for Thanksgiving (were celebrating Saturday). Can't wait!!

Thank you for your recipe! I tried it last night and you are so right!!! It’s the best recipe so far. I couldn’t find the mini pies but I bought the crust and used my mini cupcake molds. My husband loved it! I will continue to look for the mini pies it will make it even easier 🤗

my favorite pie is pecan... Thanks...

Certainly going to try this later this month. It looks great.

This looks delicious. Very different than our recipe for mini pecan pies but we definitely want to try it as well. We 100 percent agree about baking individual pies instead of messing up several different pies!👏

I love this !!!! I hope you are doing well Linda ❤️

This is a great idea! Thank you for sharing. I think pecn pie is my favorite.

This looks good, I will definitely try this recipe for the next gathering we’ll have ! Thx for sharing!

Very nice presentation and I look forward to trying your technique. It might sound odd but I've made a pecan pie a thousand times and only loved maybe 6 of them.

Thought I'd share this famous recipe by Marjorie Kinan Rawlings who wrote, "The Yearling." I grew up not far from her house on the lake. Recipe Source: “Cross Creek Cookery” by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Ingredients: 1 cup sugar 1 1/4 cups Southern cane syrup 4 eggs 4 tablespoons butter 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 1/2 cups pecan meats, broken coarsely 1 pie crust, unbaked Directions: Boil sugar and syrup together 2 or 3 minutes. Beat eggs not too stiff, pour in slowly the hot syrup, add the butter, vanilla and pecan meats. Turn into a raw pie shell and bake in a moderate oven about 45 minutes, or until set. Note: Rawlings declared this dish too rich to eat an entire slice, saying she had “served it to those in whose welfare I took no interest.” We dare you to try it anyway. And if you haven’t tried cane syrup, you should. You can find it at some specialty markets and almost always at one of the weekend booths at the Jacksonville Farmers’ Market on Beaver Street. Even if you never make the pie, cane syrup is good on everything from pancakes to biscuits. Source: “Cross Creek Cookery” by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings

Ok I want to try the mini pies

I'm excited to try this recipe. I love pecan pie and the idea of little individual servings is great. I do have to tell you I was thrilled and impressed that you scraped all the ingredients out and into the bowl no waste. So many people just pour out and leave a little ingredients in measuring cup and bowls. It drives me crazy. Put ALL the ingredients in. Thank you so much for a great video.

Thank you for the egg info......that was my issue runny pie

Looks so good I'm making for Thanksgiving and Christmas thanks a lot blessings to you and your family

I'm here to report that I made this yesterday for Thanksgiving. It was delicious AND the only dessert that was eaten entirely! I don't think that's ever happened before lol. My cousin said it was AMAZING. And it was! Thank you so much for always sharing your recipes. Hope you and Sam had a Happy Thanksgiving!! Hugs 🤗

1/3 cup of salt...I had to chuckle! It would be like Loretta Lynn's pie at the pie social! haha I love everything about your videos!

Thank you for the recipe. Looks so good

They look beautiful.

you are so precious. I lovedddd this recipe as well! thanks so much for sharing!!!

I wrote down your recipe because I know it's a winner and I love the way you explained everything believe it or not I wish more people were professional in for sending their product and what they're making like you keep up the great work I want to see more recipes and Merry Merry Christmas to you and yours. God bless

Amazing! Was a hit for Thanksgiving

You are the only cook that I've watched that scrapes the ingredients out of the bowl. Most of them leave a lot on the sides of the bowl.

Oh.....I haven't watched your video yet, but I want to tell you, I made the pecan pie that Dear Abby put in the newspaper back in the mid '70s and it came out great.....but I've not been able to find it lately when I remembered it !!!! Thank you for doing this pie.

Ok the pecan pie was great. My boy friend who I live with had 2 pieces. Loved it! Thanks.

i might have to use the 100 yrs crust cause here in Germany its almost impossible finding a premade one. maybe in the south of germany where the us army is based but in the north there is no way. and as far that i am in love with the 100yrs crust i will use that. tried other crusts but none can win the one i used thanks to your advice. thanks a lot for answering. god bless you and your family. love from germany

Gonna try this old 👵 grandma southern recipe

I absolutely love this method.. l used this recipe last year and l was the Bell Of The Ball lol Would you by chance have a recipe for a Buttermilk pie. I sure hope so cause like the with pecan pie lm hoping you can bring a different twist to the recipe in question. Thank you kindly

AWESOME

Wow nellie. LOL. Yummy! Love pecan pie. I made a cream cheese cake and over mixed it in stand mixer and it did not set all way. I use hand mixer so I did not over mix. Love your video's. Yummy!

Hello ,from mexico

These look delicious! Very different than our recipe, but delicious nonetheless.

Recipe looks delicious and I can’t wait to try it !!

Nice video! Perfect for thanksgiving:)

My pies were always runny. I'm going to make it the way you do. 😀

I love your voice! Second run at watching. Were those toss-a-way/recycle aluminum pie tins or not? These are my Mothers favorite before I made flan...not easy to transport to holiday parties. You said "hardly" packed brown sugar. Did you mean packed hard or not very packed hard? From the North, I am in love with your Southern accent. I did a recipe from a newspsper once back in the early 90s. Dutch apple pie in a brown bag. Best results. Never found it again.

I love this idea! Can you tell me where you got the individual tart tins, or did you make them you self.

im doing this very soon! I will not alter a thing! I cant wait!!(doing the fat girl happy dance) lol*** thank you for taking the time to share.

That looks good, do you now how to make the dough for little pie,s

Beautiful Pie :) they turned out perfect. Just wish I wasn't allergic to pecans. I know you eat a lot of em in the South. Best wishes, Allan :)

Recipe Please

This looks really good but the only problem is you still have to use corn syrup. I went to making a pecan pie with maple syrup instead to not use corn syrup and it's very good.

Those pies look goooood I'm definitely going to give your recipe a try

I am making this right now. I don't know how it will turn out but. I am enjoying learning your recipe (dear abby's really). There are an absurd amount of videos on this topic (it's so hard to pic one). I picked your video because I like your voice and how your explain your recipe. I don't know you but you just sound so sweet and it made me smile. I saw your hands and to me they look like the hands someone who has loved on her family all her life. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your warm voice.

My mom always said the same thing, never mix fast with pecan pie and then she would put a 3 to 6 tsp of vanilla extract and put a bunch of pecans on top but then again she'd be either making 2 to sometimes 6 pies I didn't pay too much attention lol

Where did you get container is this store-bought crust

How much rear maple syrup do I use

Can you use homey instead of corn syrup

Can I use light brown sugar instead of dark brown sugar?

A couple of questions... Is it 1/3 or 1/2 tsp of salt? Also, I found the frozen tart shells... do I wait until they are room temperature? Thanks so much!

Do you have a good chocolate pecan pie recipe?

Where I can buy those small pie shell I would love to baked individually pie ?

Don't forget 1 tsp vanilla, the Ann Lander' s recipe also calls for 1 tsp vanilla

Dear Linda, I’m in Australia and I am not familiar with light syrup. I don’t think they have it here. What would you use as an alternative? Is maple syrup okay?

I don't have vanilla, do I have to have it? Can I use maple syrup instead of vanilla?

Hope its not too sweet? I will try this

What about the crust

Hello I can't find white corn syrup here. Can I use golden? If so should I change anything? Thank you

Hi what kind of syrup is it when l got to store

Would cornstarch be better?

Hi, I was wondering does the recipe call for salted or unsalted butter?

What is the cup of light syrup? Is it a glucose or something?

Hello Linda :D I did not understand well the pie shell "thing". Is the pie shell made of crust like the 100 yrs old pie crust? or is it a different one? or could I use the 100 yrs old one? I am in love with that crust ahahhhah Thanks for your patience xoxo Sabrina

I want to use this to make the large pie.... Im nervous about the cooking time... I dont want it to be undercooked or dry and over cooked.... Ive seen some recipes that say when a toothpick comes out clean or when the middle of the pie doesnt jiggle or movie in the middle anymore.... also a lot of pecan pies cook at 375, and this one is at alot lower temp... I guess Im just being a nervous nelly about when to take it out.... do you have any advice you could give me..... My grandma passed and she made an awesome pecan pie, and left no recipe... needless to say I tried the one on the back of the dark Karo syrup.... It was horrible! my grandma always got recipes out of the newspaper, and did read that columb. I can tell how you talk about it that this is it... and if its not, I can tell that it is really good.... thank you for posting....

Can I use golden syrup?

Do I see granulated sugar sprinkled on top ? Sure looks like it to me...

Did you buy the crust?

Let me give you a variation on this pie to try...use white sugar and leave out the vanilla. That's how we do ours. Just try it once. We like it much better than with the brown sugar. Also we use chopped pecan pieces.

Talking about pie getting cut by diff people she should put one pie out at the time instead put more than one out Wait til its gone then put other one out...I see some people didging the mid piece cake from the pan instead just get the piece out from the edge I can see some people who don't like the corner piece cake or Lasagna being wired and selfishness 😝

So looooooooong

You are a peach or pecan of a gal
