Poor man's Pie image

I searched this out originally for a friend who wanted to recreate a pie from her childhood. Now I'm posting it for a request on the boards. I haven't made it, so let me know what you think about it.

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 9 inch pie shell
1 cup brown sugar or 1 cup white sugar, but brown tastes better
1/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups light cream
3 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Line a large 9-inch pie plate with rolled out pastry dough, prick with a fork and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and reduce heat to 350°F.
  • In a small bowl, combine sugar, flour and salt.
  • Mix well and spread evenly over the bottom of the crust.
  • Warm cream in the microwave, (warm, not hot) and then carefully pour the warmed cream over the sugar mixture, completely covering it.
  • In bits, dab butter over the cream.
  • Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes to an hour, or until golden spots form on the top.
  • The filling will seem liquid but will become firmer as it cools.
