Part souffle, part tart—really just pecan pie minus the crust. Whatever you call them, they're absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

Raw egg

3 large

Table salt

tsp(s)

Salted butter

1 tbsp(s), melted

Dark corn syrup

cup(s)

Dark brown sugar

cup(s)

Vanilla extract

1 tsp(s)

Chopped pecans

cup(s)

Unsalted pecan halves

1¾ oz

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450ºF. Place twelve 3-ounce ramekins in a shallow baking pan or on a rimmed cookie sheet for easy handling; coat ramekins with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat eggs with salt. Add melted butter, corn syrup, sugar and vanilla; beat well. Blend in chopped pecans and then spoon batter half way up ramekins; gently place 2 pecan halves on top of each ramekin.
  3. Bake for about 17 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF and bake until a knife or toothpick inserted in centre of a ramekin comes out clean, about 15 to 20 minutes more. Remove from oven and allow to cool; serve in ramekins with a spoon, either warm or cold. Yields 1 per serving.
