YES! Just exactly what you want my BEST Pecan Pie Recipe (No Corn Syrup!) made into Mini Pecan Pies! I don’t know if it gets better than the best pecan pie made portable.
Flavorful old-fashioned pecan pie filling made with brown sugar,
Mini Pecan Pies
The only difference between these and a BIG pie is that these are PORTABLE! So you can easily pack them in lunches or send them home with leftovers instead of a crumbling slice of pie at Thanksgiving!
No Corn Syrup Mini Pecan Pies
This is a riff on my Popular Pecan Pie without Corn Syrup Recipe that everyone who tastes it absolutely loves! It’s got so much more flavor than a pie made with just flavorless sweet syrup. In fact, that’s why I call it old-fashioned, it’s like what pecan pie USED to taste like back before corn syrup became the go-to filler for them. Believe me, I’m old enough to know!!
What do I need to Make Mini Pecan Pies?
For one thing, you don’t need Corn Syrup! But to make these little pies you WILL need:
- Muffin Pan
- Whisk
- Brown and White Sugar
- Butter
- Pecans
- Milk
- Egg
- Vanilla
- One Single Pie Crust-can be premade OR try my Easy All Butter Pie Crust (you only need HALF of the recipe, save the other crust in the fridge or freezer!)

Hi! The recipes says “1/4 butter” – which I assume is 1/4 cup butter – do I assume correctly? Thanks!
YES! Thanks so much!
