Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
For an enhanced nutty flavor, toast the pecan halves in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant, before adding them to the filling. Be careful not to burn them.
If the pie crust edges begin to brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
Serve the pecan pie warm or at room temperature, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Store leftover pecan pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Apr 9, 2023My crust was browning too quickly, so I tented it with foil during the last 20 minutes of baking.

Oct 11, 2022I found that chilling the pie dough before filling it helped prevent it from shrinking during baking.
