Instructions

Heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Arrange pecans in the pie shell and set aside.

Over low heat, cook the butter in a saucepan, watching closely but not stirring, until golden brown about 5 to 8 minutes. Do not burn. Pour browned butter into a bowl and set aside.

In a medium bowl, slightly beat the eggs, then add the corn syrup, honey, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and salt, stirring until smooth.

Add browned butter; blend again. Pour over pecans in pie shell.

Bake for 10 minutes, then lower heat to 325 degrees and bake another 40 minutes. Center may seem a bit liquid but will set as the pie cools.

Serve with real whipped cream or ice cream.
