Slow Cooker Pecan Pie
Slow-cooker pecan pie is a great dessert for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. It’s easy to make and has a flaky, crunchy crust and a gooey pecan pie filling. You can’t beat this treat.

The holidays are not the same withoutย pecan pie. We eat it for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it’s always a treat. My dad is usually the one to make the pie, and his always turns out delicious.
I didn’t like pecan pie as a kid, and now I can’t live without it because the combination of the center, pie crust, and candied pecans is perfection.
I thought making it in the slow cooker would be fun, and it turned out perfectly. You still end up with candied pecans on top and the ooey-gooey center, making the best combination together.
You save space in the oven by making this easy pecan pie in the slow cooker.

Ingredients
(Exact measurements at the bottom of the post).
- Refrigerated rolled pie crust (they come in packs of two)
- Pecans
- Corn Syrup
- Eggs
- Sugar
- Butter
- Vanilla

How To Make The Pie

Start by spraying the inside of the slow cooker with non-stick spray. Cut off a piece of parchment paper and place it inside of the slow cooker. The paper will stick better to the non-stick spray.
Then, unroll the pie crust and press it into the cooker. I pressed the sides up just a bit, about two inches, so the pie would stay inside of the crust once I poured it inside.

Next, add the eggs to a medium-sized bowl and beat them.ย

Then, pour the sugar into the bowl.ย

Add the vanilla extract next.ย

Followed by the melted butter and mix everything.ย

Pour the corn syrup into the bowl and mix well.

Finally, add the pecans to the bowl and stir to coat them all.ย
Do Pecans Rise To The Top?
They do, which is how you end up with all of the pecans on the top after it bakes. Pecans will rise fairly fast.
I always stir the mixture before I pour it into a pie shell or the slow cooker because the sugar tends to sink and then you pour it and it all clumps out. So, be sure to stir it before pouring it into the crust.

Gently pour the pecan pie filling into the slow cooker.ย

Top with the lid and set the timer on high for two hours.ย
TIP: As tempted as you are, don’t open the lid because you will need to cook it longer after letting out some of the heat.
Also, it’s okay if condensation builds up inside. It won’t affect the pie.ย

Once the pie cooks for two hours, turn the slow cooker off, remove the lid, and allow it to cool for two to three hours as it sets up.ย
After the pie cools, lift it out using parchment paper and slice.
This is the best pecan pie recipe.ย If you love this pie, try these stovetop candied pecans, or this pecan pie cobbler that will feed a crowd.
What Does Pecan Pie Look Like When Done?
When done baking, pecan pie will jiggle only a little bit in the center. You can also insert a knife or cake tester, and if it comes out clean, it is done. It’s ok if the pie is a tad jiggly when you remove it from the oven. The pecan pie will set as it cools.
How Far In Advance Can I Make Slow Cooker Pecan Pie?
You can make the pecan pie a couple of days in advance, but make sure you keep it in a container that seals up well and place it in the refrigerator (after you let it cool and set up).
If you’ve had it in the refrigerator, you can set it on the counter to warm up a little before serving.
It will taste much better if you make it the day you plan to eat it and allow it to set up for several hours or one day in advance.
Should Pecan Pie Be Refrigerated?
Unless you plan to eat the pie on the same day, it should be refrigerated.
