Pecan Cheesecake Pie Recipe

Ingredients

For the crust:

• 1 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

For the cheesecake layer:

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 large egg

For the pecan topping:

• 3/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 1 1/4 cups pecan halves

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and set aside.
2. Make the cheesecake layer: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg until smooth. Spread evenly over the pie crust.
3. Prepare the pecan filling: In another bowl, whisk together corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and melted butter. Stir in pecans.
4. Assemble the pie: Gently pour the pecan filling over the cheesecake layer.
5. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the center is set. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
6. Cool completely before serving. Refrigerate for best results.
