Classic Southern Pecan Pie, 9" Deep Dish

510 Test Pies. One Family Recipe.

When Priester’s set out to create the perfect Southern pecan pie, we took the task seriously—510 test pies seriously. Our family and bakers tested recipes from throughout the community in search of a pecan pie with exceptional flavor, beautiful appearance, and a filling that would slice beautifully and travel well. After all that testing, the winning recipe was right in the family all along: Mother May’s treasured pecan pie recipe.

Today, our 9-inch deep-dish pecan pie is made with carefully selected pecans, a rich, buttery filling, and a flaky, made-from-scratch crust. Baked by Priester’s since 1987, it has the old-fashioned Southern flavor, generous pecan filling, and beautiful slices that make a classic pecan pie worth sharing.

Fully baked and ready to serve, Priester’s Classic Southern Pecan Pie makes a delicious dessert for Thanksgiving, Christmas, family gatherings, and special occasions throughout the year. Each pie is beautifully presented in a signature Priester’s gift box and packaged with exceptional care for shipping, making it just as special to send as it is to receive.
