Instructions: Prepare the crust: In a food processor, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the cold cubed butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Prepare the filling: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides.
Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.
Assemble the pie: Pour the pecan filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the pie: Place the pie on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) and bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Cool and serve: Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving. Pecan pie is delicious served warm or at room temperature.
