Crock Pot Pecan Pie

Now that I’ve made Pecan Pie in a crock pot, I’m thoroughly convinced that anything can be made in a crock pot. The super-sweet filling that is so characteristic of a pecan pie sets up perfectly and the pecans turn beautifully golden in color.

Since I get a little tired (ok, a lot tired) of always cooking things the same way, I was really excited to try a Crock Pot Pecan Pie. If you have an oval 6-quart crock pot like I do, a circular piece of refrigerated pie crust fits a little unevenly (obviously!) But it’s workable. The dough cooks a little unevenly if you leave the excess on the long sides. I thought about trimming it off, but I love the crust so much, I couldn’t bring myself to discard any of it and it was too little to do anything else with. So I went with it and the pie crust was a little undercooked in parts, but totally delicious.   Recipe Tips I was worried that when I sliced it, it wouldn’t hold its shape, but it did. The trick is to let it cool completely. If you want to eat it warm, you can heat it briefly in the microwave. For some chocolate flavor, add half a cup of chocolate chips. Some people have suggested using a corck pot plastic liner and then the pie is easy to lift whole out of the crock pot. I have not tried this. Please leave a comment if you have. I think parchment paper would also work well. How To Serve With a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, I don’t think there’s any better southern dessert for fall! I also love it with some fresh whipped cream on top. Can be served either warm or at room temperature. Storage Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for 5 days.
