Pecan pie has recently become one of my favourite pies. For anyone who hasn’t had a slice before, it is basically a giant butter tart with pecans. I will admit that I cheat and buy store-bought crusts for all my pies, I find the Pillsbury ones work really well. I have never tried to make my own, and it would probably be better, but at this point I think my pies turn out well enough that I am ok using them.

There isn't much more to say on this other than you should try pecan pie for yourself if you have never had, because it is really really good. I will probably be posting some more recipes with pecans over the next couple of weeks now because I have a lot left over.

Happy Thanksgiving!
