Portable Pecan Pie in a Jar

Introduction

Portable Pecan Pie in a Jar is a delightful and convenient way to enjoy a beloved classic. These mini treats are perfect for parties, picnics, or any time you crave a sweet snack.

Easy-to-Make Recipe

Creating Pecan Pie in a Jar is simple. Start with a basic pecan pie recipe, but instead of a large pie, use small mason jars. This ensures each serving is perfectly portioned.

Ingredients

You'll need pecans, corn syrup, sugar, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract. For the crust, use graham crackers or your favorite pie crust recipe, crumbled and pressed into the jars.

Preparing the Crust

Press a layer of crushed graham crackers mixed with melted butter into the bottom of each jar. This forms the base and adds a delicious, buttery crunch to your dessert.

Making the Filling

Mix pecans, corn syrup, sugar, beaten eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour this mixture over the crust in each jar, filling about two-thirds of the way to allow room for expansion.

Baking Tips

Place the jars on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 30-35 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the filling; it should come out clean.

Serving Suggestions

Top your Pecan Pie in a Jar with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Serve warm or at room temperature for a truly satisfying dessert experience.
