Old Fashioned Sugar Cream Pie

1 cup sugar

5 T. Flour

Dash of salt

2 cups whipping cream

1 cup half-and- half

2 egg yolks

1 tsp. vanilla

Cinnamon

 

Directions: If a convection oven, preheat to 325. Regular oven, preheat to 350.

Mix the sugar with the flour until completely blended…completely blended is

essential. Add the salt and whipping cream. Blend the half-and- half with the yolks

and stir into the sugar mixture, then add the vanilla. Just blend the mixture; do not

beat it. Pour into an unbaked pie shell and sprinkle cinnamon on the top.

 

Bake the pie until the filling is completely set when the pie is jiggled or until it

bubbled through for 10 minutes. In convection oven, this takes an hour and 15

minutes. In a regular oven, start checking after an hour.

 

Comment: From Gerschuh’s Restaurant in Greenville, Ohio - an original drive-in

across from the Darke County Fair Grounds. Famous for all its pies, the Sugar

Cream Pie was the best seller.
