Pecan Pie for Two image

PECAN PIE was always requested by the family for special occasions. When we became empty nesters, it was hard to give up some of our family favorites when we found that leftovers were too much for the two of us. Smaller recipes were hard to come by, so I was delightful to find this one. Now we can have pecan pie - fresh - just for the two of us. -Noreen Johnson, Leesburg, Florida

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted chopped walnuts for the pecans in this recipe. The pie turned out great! The walnuts gave the pie a delicious flavor and texture. I will definitely be making this pie again.
