Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust into a standard 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, whisk together granulated sugar and cornstarch until there are no lumps.
Gradually add in the milk while whisking continuously. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
Cook the mixture while stirring frequently until it begins to thicken and bubble, about 6-8 minutes.
Once the filling has thickened, reduce the heat to low and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Continue stirring until the butter is completely melted and incorporated.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
In a small bowl, mix together ground cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the pie filling.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the filling fully set.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Dutch Mill Sugar Cream Pie!
