Notes

➔ Use toasted pecans to get a much deeper nut flavor.
➔ Make sure your eggs are at room temperature before mixing.
➔ Cover the crust edges with foil to prevent over-browning.
➔ Do not over-mix the eggs to avoid a foamy top.
➔ Let the pie cool completely so the filling sets perfectly.
➔ Use high-quality vanilla extract for the very best taste.
➔ Tap the bowl to remove air bubbles before you bake.
