The exterior was the only redeeming part I think. The crust, perfect. The top? Pretty good.

Interior kinda is mid imo. I'm not sure if it is the recipe I used (the 'no corn syrup' pecan pie my grandmother taught me) or if I actually somehow managed to overcook it but it is both very close to what I remember and yet so far. (I haven't had this specific pecan pie in almost two decades though so shrug-outta-hecks)

I think my biggest mistake was putting 1/2 of crushed pecans into the filling. I distinctly remember my grandmother doing this, but I can only assume she was doing deep-dish pies and that's why mine turned out like it did. Or maybe I should have cut back on the butter, as evident from the pie dish....maybe I shouldn't bake while blitzed actually
