Pecan Pie Recipe From Justin Timberlake's Granny Sadie

July 19, 2007 — -- Even pop stars have to go home sometimes, and when they do, nothing makes them feel better than homemade comfort food.

For Justin Timberlake, it's his Granny Sadie's pecan pie, a pie that is so good, it inspired him to open a restaurant in her honor. Southern Hospitality is opening in New York City.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine sugar, flour, salt, eggs and butter. Whisk ingredients until mixture becomes light in color. Add corn syrup, vanilla and chopped pecans. Stir with a rubber spatula until combined. Pour into a baked and cooled pie crust and bake in oven for 30 minutes. Pie is done when completely puffed across the top and the pecans have formed a nice, crispy crust.
