Description
This easy sugar pie recipe creates a rich, creamy dessert with a flaky crust, perfect for a comforting and satisfying treat using basic pantry staples, especially on busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 200 g (1 cup) dark brown sugar, packed
- 30 g (0.25 cup) all-purpose flour
- 60 g (0.25 cup) unsalted butter, melted
- 250 ml (1 cup) whole milk or heavy cream
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 0.5 g (0.25 teaspoon) fine sea salt
- 1 large egg yolk
- 60 ml (0.25 cup) tahini (optional, for swirling)
Instructions
- Prep Your Crust: Prepare your 9-inch pie crust, fitting it into the pie plate and crimping edges. No pre-baking is needed for easy preparation.
- Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk 200 g (1 cup) dark brown sugar, 30 g (0.25 cup) all-purpose flour, and 0.5 g (0.25 teaspoon) fine sea salt until lump-free and combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Whisk in 60 g (0.25 cup) melted butter, 250 ml (1 cup) milk or cream, 1 large egg yolk, and 5 ml (1 teaspoon) alcohol-free vanilla extract until smooth.
- Fill and Bake: Pour filling into crust. Dollop 60 ml (0.25 cup) tahini, swirl gently. Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 40-50 minutes; edges set, center jiggles. (Tent if crust browns.)
- Cool Completely: Cool the baked pie completely on a wire rack for 2-3 hours. This allows the creamy filling to fully set, making perfect slices. The pie should feel firm.
Notes
For convenience, use a good quality store-bought 9-inch pie crust. You can adapt this recipe with a gluten-free crust or dairy-free milk, and add a pinch of cinnamon for warmth. Always use good quality unsalted butter and pure alcohol-free vanilla extract for the best flavor. Melt butter quickly in the microwave. If the crust browns too quickly during baking, tent it with foil. Cool the pie completely for 2-3 hours on a wire rack to allow the filling to set properly for perfect slices.
