Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch Unbaked pie crust
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roll out the unbaked pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Flute the edges as desired. Prick the bottom lightly with a fork to prevent bubbling.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and all-purpose flour. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Gradually add the heavy cream into the sugar-flour mixture while whisking continuously until smooth.
Pour the cream mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Cut the unsalted butter into small pieces and dot the top of the pie filling with the butter.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the surface is lightly golden.
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature. The filling will continue to firm up as it cools.
If desired, lightly dust the top of the pie with ground cinnamon before serving.
Slice and serve the Shaker Sugar Cream Pie at room temperature or chilled. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
