Irresistible Pecan Pie Delight

Ingredients

- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups pecans, roughly chopped
- 1 9-inch pie crust, unbaked

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking. This ensures even heat distribution once your pie is ready to bake.

2. Prepare the Filling
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Mix well until fully incorporated to prevent lumps in the filling.

3. Blend the Wet Ingredients
Add 1 can (14 ounces) of sweetened condensed milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the sugar-flour mixture. Stir continuously until you have a smooth, creamy filling.

4. Incorporate the Pecans
Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of roughly chopped pecans into the mixture. Ensure the pecans are evenly distributed throughout the filling for consistent flavor in every bite.

5. Assemble the Pie
Place the unbaked 9-inch pie crust on a baking sheet for stability. Pour the pecan mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

6. Bake the Pie
Carefully place the baking sheet in the preheated oven on the middle rack. Bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. You can test the filling's firmness by gently shaking the pie; it should slightly jiggle in the center.

7. Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack. This cooling time helps the filling to set further. Serve the pie at room temperature, or for an extra indulgent experience, slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
