Irresistible Microwave Pecan Pie Delight

Ingredients

- 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 pre-made pie crust, thawed
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust
Place the pre-made pie crust in a microwave-safe 9-inch pie dish. Use a fork to gently puncture the crust to prevent bubbling. Set aside.

2. Mix the Filling
In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, melted butter, beaten eggs, light corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk all the ingredients together until you have a smooth mixture.

3. Add the Pecans
Stir the chopped pecans into the filling mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

4. Fill the Crust
Pour the pecan filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

5. Microwave Cooking
Place the pie in the microwave and cook on high for 5 minutes (PT5M). Then, reduce the power to medium and continue microwaving for an additional 5 minutes (PT5M). Check the pie’s consistency, which should be set but slightly jiggly in the center. If necessary, cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes (PT1M-PT2M).

6. Cool and Serve
Let the pie cool in the microwave-safe dish on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes (PT15M) before serving to allow the filling to set properly.
