Chef's tips
Toast the pecans lightly before adding them to boost their flavor. Cover the crust edges loosely with foil if they brown too fast, and let the pie cool completely to set the filling.
Storage
Store covered at room temperature up to 2 days, or refrigerate up to 5 days.
Reheating
Warm individual slices briefly in a low oven if desired.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Underbaking the pie, which leaves the center runny
- •Slicing the pie while it is still warm, making the filling spill out
