After making this for a couple of fellow workers I made this for a church thanksgiving bake sale and it was a hit with both. I made the simple syrup by mixing 2 parts water to 1 part Splenda as suggested by another reviewer. This worked out great and brought the sugar level down.

You need to clarify the "lite syrup" a bit more for diabetics. We now count carbs and it will vary with the syrup used. It would be great it that was stated with the recipe.

I work in a Health Care Facillity and we used this Pie for a Special Meal . My staff tasted this pie and thought it was wonderful, in fact my cook wanted the recipe because she said it was better than Regular Pecan pie

Can you give an example of a "lite syrup" other than corn syrup so I know what I would be looking for? Thanks.

For the reviewer concerned with the syrup in the recipe: The recipe says LIGHT SYRUP (as in diet, sugarfree), not light CORN syrup. There are many syrups out there that are made with Splenda, and these will work fine in the recipe.

This recipe is good, but I wouldn't let anyone that is a diabetic eat this. There is light corn syrup aka sugar in it.

So is this recipe only great because people were confused about the syrup?

A great diabetic syrup is Cary's brand. I LOVE it!!! Tastes better than regular syrup.

you can make light syrup by boiling 2 parts water with 1 part splenda to make however much you need.
