Ingredients Used to Make Cinnamon Pie
- Cinnamon: The star of the show, bringing that signature warmth and spice.
- Brown Sugar: Adds depth and a hint of molasses, balancing out the cinnamon perfectly.
- Butter: Makes everything rich and delicious.
- Eggs: Helps create that smooth, custardy filling.
- Cream: For that luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
- Vanilla Extract: A little touch of vanilla goes a long way in rounding out the flavors.
- Pie Crust: Use store-bought for convenience, or make your own if you’re feeling fancy.
How to Make Cinnamon Pie
- Preheat & Prep: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out your pie crust and fit it into a pie dish, crimping the edges for that classic pie look.
- Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Add the Cream: Gradually pour in the cream, mixing until everything is well combined. The mixture should be silky and smooth with a lovely cinnamon aroma.
- Fill & Bake: Pour the cinnamon filling into the prepared pie crust. Smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the pie is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Cool & Enjoy: Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack. This helps the filling set nicely, making it easier to slice. Serve it up with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you’re feeling extra indulgent.
Finally, Cinnamon Pie is as easy to make as it is to devour. Whether you’re serving it up for a special occasion or just because you’ve got a cinnamon craving, this pie is sure to hit the spot. So, grab a fork, dig in, and enjoy the warm, spicy flavors that make this dessert a true standout. 🍽️
