Crockpot Pecan Pie

by

Step One: Prepare the Crockpot

  1. Generously spray the inside of your crockpot with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Roll out the uncooked piecrust and carefully lay it inside the crockpot. Gently press the crust into the bottom and up the sides, about ½ inch from the top. This creates a natural edge for the pie.

Step Two: Make the Filling

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until slightly frothy.
  2. Add the sugar and dark Karo syrup, stirring until fully dissolved.
  3. Slowly pour in the melted margarine, mixing consistently to combine.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and chopped pecans. The mixture will be thick but pourable.

Step Three: Assemble the Pie

  1. Carefully pour the filling mixture into the prepared crust in the crockpot.
  2. Use a spoon to distribute the pecans evenly, ensuring they’re well-dispersed for even baking.

Step Four: Cook to Perfection

  1. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to HIGH.
  2. Cook for 2–3 hours, depending on your crockpot’s heat. The pie is done when the filling is set and slightly firm in the center.
    • To check, gently press the filling; it should have a slight jiggle but not be runny.
    • Avoid lifting the lid too often during cooking, as this releases heat and may increase cooking time.

Step Five: Cool and Serve

  1. Turn off the crockpot and let the pie cool slightly before removing it.
  2. Use the edges of the crust to gently lift the pie out, or carefully slice it inside the crockpot.
  3. Allow the pie to rest for 20–30 minutes to firm up fully.

Serving Suggestions

  • Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • Drizzle with caramel sauce for an extra layer of indulgence.
  • Garnish with whole pecans for a professional finish.

Storage Tips

  • Refrigerate: Cover leftovers tightly and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze: Wrap slices in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight before reheating.

Enjoy this delicious crockpot pecan pie — the epitome of southern charm and convenience! Perfect for holidays or a special treat any day of the week.
