Step 1
Grab a big bowl and combine the flour and salt. Mix it well so that everything is evenly distributed.
Step 2
Add the shortening until you get a crumbly texture of the dough.
Step 3
Slowly start adding cold water. Use a form to toss it around until you form an even ball.
Step 4
Rill out the dough until it’s around 9 inches in diameter.
Step 5
Grab a pie plate and transfer the rolled dough to it. Be sure that the crust is around half an inch wider than the pie plate.
Step 6
Once it's done, flute the edges and sprinkle in pecans.
Step 7
Grab a small bowl and add the corn syrup, eggs, vanilla, sugar, and salt. Beat well until everything is smooth and homogenous.
Step 8
Pour the mixture over the pecans, making sure that it’s distributed evenly.
Step 9
Put it in the oven and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for around 45-50 minutes. To make sure it’s fully done, grab a knife or fork and pierce the middle of the pie. If the knife comes out clean, that means that the pie is ready.
Step 10
Cool it on a wire rack before cutting and serving.
