Pecan Pie Recipes

Pecan pie is a sweet custard pie made primarily of pecans, sugar and either an egg type custard or corn syrup. Pecan Pie is a true southern tradition. 

Wikipedia stated that "One tradition holds that the French created pecan pie soon after settling in New Orleans, after being introduced to the nut by Native Americans.

It is sometimes referred to as 'New Orleans pecan pie,' adding an aura of French cuisine to a home-cooked comfort food. "
