Did You Know?

It is believed that French settlers invented Pecan Pie when they discovered the nuts growing in New Orleans. There is, however, no evidence to support this and the earliest known recipe is from 1897.

If it was invented by colonialists, then they probably would have used cane syrup, as corn syrup - the type of syrup Americans traditionally use for pecan pie - was not yet produced. It was not until Karo syrup began being made in the 1930s that it became popular. It is now America's 3rd favourite pie.
