Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

- Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove and cover edges of pastry with aluminum foil. Return to oven for 20 minutes.
- To Make Topping: Combine 1/3 cup brown sugar, butter or margarine, and honey in a medium saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves - about 2 minutes. Add pecans. Stir just until coated. Spoon topping evenly over pie.

HONEY CRUNCH PECAN PIE
This recipe is an adoptee from the RecipeZaar account. I changed the recipe slightly because the crust ingredients were entered incorrectly by the original owner of this recipe (unless the crust was really made of 1/3 cup flour and 1/2 cup crisco, which I highly doubt). Anyway, this is a very good pecan pie; I think the honey added to the topping is really nice. I hope you enjoy it!

This is the winner of First Place in the Nut Category for the American Pie Council's 2000 National Pie Championship. I got this recipe in 2004 from Allrecipes. Those who are my friends know that I don't bake usually. This pie is a keeper. I've made this lots of times and I'm always asked for the recipe. It is delicious.

- Toast the pecans before adding them to the pie. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Don't overmix the pie filling. Overmixing will make the pie tough.
- Bake the pie until the center is set. The pie should be slightly jiggly in the center when you take it out of the oven.
