To get the creamiest custard filling, be sure that the mixture only steams and not simmer or boil. The recipe I’ve included below is the bees knees! Be sure to blind bake the pie crust using pie weights before adding the filling. Seriously, a buttery, flaky homemade pie crust will take this pie to the next level of deliciousness. This gives the pie a firmer finished set, IMO. I prefer to cook the custard filling on the stove-top and then bake it in the oven for a bit. Some sugar cream pie recipes requires cooking on the filling on the stove-top before transferring to a pie crust to set.

I like to add just a few drops of coconut extract to add another level of flavor. It’s a super simple pie with minimal ingredients. It’s so creamy and has a beautiful hint of vanilla with a crackling cinnamon sugar topping and buttery pie crust. This pie is a rich, sweet custard pie (no eggs). In 2009 Sugar Cream Pie became Indiana’s official state pie! The heck… I’m intrigued! After some light digging, I discovered that this Amish goodness, most often referred to as Sugar Cream Pie, is famous in Indiana. That was was my exact question when one of my subscribers asked me to do a video on old-fashioned sugar cream pie. It’s safe to say we reeeeally like this pie! If you like homemade cream pies, then I’m pretty sure you’ll love it as well! Move over Coconut Cream Pie. No?Įither way, we are on Sugar Cream Pie #2 in less than seven days in my house.
