Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 400 grams sweetened condensed milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 100 grams golden syrup
- 20 grams cornstarch
- 50 milliliters caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 pinch sea salt flakes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and lightly flour a 9-inch pie dish.
In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar for the crust. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to the flour mixture, stirring with a fork after each addition. Stop when the dough starts to come together.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a ball. Flatten it into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit the pie dish. Press it into the bottom and sides of the dish, trimming any excess. Prick the base with a fork and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, eggs, cornstarch, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Heat the golden syrup in a saucepan over low heat until slightly runny (do not boil). Gradually whisk the warm syrup into the milk and egg mixture.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any spills and transfer it to the oven.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
Once cooled, drizzle caramel sauce over the top of the pie and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt flakes, if desired.
Slice and serve your Golden Treasure Pie. Enjoy!
