Indiana Sugar Cream Pie
Indiana Sugar Cream Pie, also known as Hoosier Pie, is a creamy, egg-free Midwest classic with a buttery, custard-like filling and a flaky pie crust, finished with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. It's sweet, simple, and brimming with nostalgic comfort.
Ingredients
- 1 pre-baked 9-inch pie crust
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Place the pre-baked pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the sugar, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt.
- Slowly add in the heavy cream and whole milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
- Continue to whisk the mixture until it thickens, about 10 to 12 minutes. The filling should be smooth and the consistency of custard.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add in the butter and vanilla extract, stirring until the butter is melted and fully incorporated.
- Pour the warm filling into the prepared pie crust, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Sprinkle the top with ground cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg.
- Let the pie cool to room temperature before transferring it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature with a spoonful of whipped cream if desired.
