Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 crust pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, flour, apple cider vinegar, and water. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter until fully melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Slowly add the slightly cooled vinegar mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
Stir in vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until well combined.
Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula if needed.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before serving. The filling will firm up as it cools.
Slice and enjoy your Old Fashioned Vinegar Pie! Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
