4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
5. In a large bowl, combine the egg, egg whites, corn syrup, vanilla, sugar, brown sugar, and salt; mix well. Stir in the pecan halves and pour the mixture into the pie shell.
6. Bake for about 25 minutes, then tent loosely with aluminium foil.
7. Bake for about 15-20 more minutes (until the tip of a knife inserted 1-inch from the edge comes out clean).
8. Let cool on a wire rack.
