Pecan Pie Question

[Jnett]

I am not much of a baker, sorry if this seems like a silly question.

If I bake more than one pie in the oven, how much time would I add on per pie? Or do I not add any all?

Thanks,
Jennifer

That depends... are you sharing? :heh

Seriously, I don't bake but I am sure someone can answer your question!

:drool Oh....my favorite!!!!! I don't think you need to leave them in longer if you have more than one in the oven....Icebear would probably know, but her's probably have something weird like dill pickles in the recipe which will change everything. :aha

You out the pecans on top of the pickles so the juices run down into the filling... true story.

You don't have to increase the cooking time because of the extra pie in the oven. Depending on how accurate your oven's heat is though, you might want to check it before the time is up. The key to pecan pie is that you should bake it until a knife inserted in the center of the pie comes out clean.

Unless you have a super large oven, I wouldn't bake more than 2 at a time. Make sure that the pie plates don't touch each other or the sides of the oven.

it really depends on your oven and how good it is.
I would keep an eye on them after the inital time is over for one.
If it were me I would cook them one at a time. I think you might wind up with some part of the pie not done if you did both.

Good luck with your pies :) Also might want to google the question. :)

Take care :)

:hehee Does it leave a pickle taste to the pie? I hate pickles, so the "pickle thread" stuck in my head. :lol2

Thanks everyone, I have about 30lbs of pecans in my freezer that my mother-in-law gave me. Everyone will be getting a pie for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

If your oven is good at holding its temperature you probably dont need to add any time.

However, if the pies are on two different racks you should swap them half way through cooking so they both come out even.

I usually turn mine during baking, and if the mixture doesn't wiggle when shook any more, it is usually a good sign it is done.

The mixture should be somewhat 'solid' if touched in the middle.
