Preheat the oven to 350°F
In a large bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
1 cup light corn syrup, 1 cup granulated sugar, 3 large eggs, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Stir in the pecan halves, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
1 1/4 cups pecan halves
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading the pecans out evenly.
1 9-inch store bought or homemade unbaked pie shell
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. The center should be slightly jiggly but not liquid.
If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil halfway through baking.
Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. This helps the filling set properly.
