Hi Rosy! You’ll need 2 pie crusts if you double it, but yes it can be doubled. 🙂

I’m planning on making this recipe soon! Can the filling be doubled?

So here’s the thing: It absolutely erks me when people give a recipe 5 stars, yet they’ve changed the recipe, but I didn’t make the homemade crust because I’m lazy today, and I didn’t toast the pecans, because I’m lazy today and I used white kayro syrup because it’s what I had. This pie turned out fantastic regardless. I did pull after 20 minutes and covered the edges of the pie crust only. The pecans are crunchy and toasted and the filling is divine. I can only imagine, if prepared the way instructed, it would be amped up. Best recipe for pecan pie in my book. Thanks for sharing it!

Made it this weekend and it was soooo good! I used light corn syrup and cheated a little by using store-bought pie crust. I didn’t notice a difference. It tasted like the pecan pie from a favorite local bakery. I’m definitely making this again! One thing I will probably tweak is to grease my pie pan. I think my crust may have cracked or the filling leaked/spilled over. Parts of the crust stuck to the pan and it didn’t make pretty portions. It was still very yummy nevertheless.

Hi Lydia! We suspect a regular shell will not hold all of the filling, so deep dish might be best. Enjoy 😊

A quick and easy pie that comes out perfect every time!Like it says, cook until the center no longer jiggles and you get that perfectly carmelized top and creamy bottom.

What if I just want to use frozen pie shells. Do I use regular or deep dish shells?

Toasting the pecans makes all the difference in the world. The pies were devoured by my family.

Another top notch recipe, Sam!!

Doris, did you use metric measurements and weigh the ingredients? I doubled the recipe and always use a scale when baking. Both pies were delicious and I was told the best recipe ever.

Hi Doris! That’s really odd that it only made it halfway up the pie crust. Did you make any other alterations? You can see mine in the picture and I make it on camera in a standard 9.5 inch pie plate. I’m glad you enjoyed it though. 🙂

The pie turned out great although I had to use light Karo. Will make again using the dark. I voted 4 stars because I’m confused why you call for a 9 1/2” crust. The pecans and syrup only filled abut a little more than half my crust. Turns out with too much crust and too little filling.

Absolutely delicious! Pecan pie was always way down on my list of preferred pies but this recipe turned out a pie that I actually looked forward to eating. I used the homemade pie crust recipe and that was really good too.

Hi, Sam. I made your pecan pie recipe for Thanksgiving this year. Usually I make the recipe on the Karo syrup bottle, but I wanted to up my pie game:). It was the best I’d ever baked, and it got so many compliments. Toasting the pecans is a MUST – totally amps up the flavor of the pie. The proportions of all ingredients seem just right. Thank you!

I just wouldn’t put the filling in the crust before you bake it if you are worried about the crust getting soggy. I would think it would be ok to just assemble it and let it sit, but without having tried it myself I can’t say for sure how it would go. Enjoy! 🙂

I’m making another pie that needs to bake before this one. Is the best way to make the egg/sugar/corn syrup mixture and refrigerate it, assembling the pie only before baking? Only for about an hour until the other pie is done? I feel like that would be better than putting the whole thing together and letting it sit for an hour.

Hi Sandra! You can use light corn syrup, I actually cover this in the post. 🙂

The flavor of this pie was the best I have had. This will be my new pecan pie recipe. The brown sugar and dark Karo was the perfect combo. And the crust!! What can I say? To die for! Thank you

In reply to Jody.

You could, but you’ll need to reduce the salt in the filling to 1/8 teaspoon and omit the salt from the crust if you’re making your own 😊
