Southern Brown Sugar Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place prepared pie crust on cookie/baking sheet - trust me, you will appreciate this. Set aside while oven is heating.
• WHISK together eggs and add in sugar, butter and vanilla. WHISK together until combined well and smooth - DO NOT USE A MIXER.
• Pour into pie crust. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown. Be very careful with baking time as pie can go from delicious to disaster very easily. (Note: You may need to put aluminum foil around pie crust edges to prevent too much browning.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a saucepan, combine flour and sugar. Stir in milk, butter, salt and vanilla. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Pour into an unbaked pie shell.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking for 25 minutes.

Steps:

• In large mixing bowl, combine ingredients in order given.
• Pour into pie shell.
• Bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to 2 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time); do not overmix. Form dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a floured surface, roll out dough to a 12-inch round. Place in a 9-inch pie plate, fold overhang under, and crimp edges. Prick dough all over with a fork. Place a sheet of parchment paper over dough and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edge is light golden, about 15 minutes; remove parchment and weights.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, eggs, and brown sugar until smooth. Whisk in buttermilk, nutmeg, and cinnamon until combined. In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium, swirling pan occasionally, until golden brown and most of the foam has subsided, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately whisk into buttermilk mixture. Pour filling into pie shell and bake until set but still slightly wobbly in center, 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack, 2 hours, before serving. (Refrigerate, wrapped in plastic, up to 3 days.)
