Recipe from The SECRET family recipe files!

Ingredients:

3 large eggs
1 c. Griffin's Original Syrup
1/2 c. granulated sugar
4 tbsp. butter, melted and cooled
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 c. chopped Oklahoma pecans
Pecan halves for garnish, if desired
1 Deep Dish Pie Crust
 
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Place pie crust in pan on a foil-lined baking sheet. 

In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs slightly.  Add Griffin's syrup, granulated sugar, butter and vanilla; blend well.  Stir in the chopped pecans, and pour mixture into pie crust.  If desired, arrange additional pecan halves in a decorative fashion over pie filling.

Place a foil sleeve over edges of pie crust to prevent over-browning during baking.  Bake for 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then lower oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake for an additional 20 minutes with foil sleeve in place.  Then, carefully remove the foil sleeve (I use tongs) and continue baking at 325 for another 20 minutes, or until pie is set. 

Allow pie to cool completely at room temperature, and then store in refrigerator.  Enjoy!
