Old Fashioned Recipe for Vinegar Pie
Ingredients
- 2 pie crusts homemade or store bought
- 1 quart water or 3 cups, to shorten boiling time
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
- Pinch of salt
- 3 Tablespoons cold white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon maple extract If you don’t have maple extract vanilla, lemon, or coconut extract will also work
- ¼ tsp. cinnamon
Instructions
- Well ahead of time, prepare two pie dishes with a single crust pastry and pre-bake according to recipe instructions. Allow pie shells to fully cool.
- In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, combine the eggs, sugar, flour, salt, and vinegar in a mixing bowl and use a whisk to combine.
- Pour the filling mixture into the boiling water and continue to boil, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens. (6-12 minutes, depending on amount of water.)
- When mixture thickly coats the back of a spoon, remove the pan from heat.
- Add in the cinnamon and maple extract and stir to combine.
- Pour mixture through a sieve into each pie crust to prevent any curdled egg from ending up in the finished pie.
- Refrigerate for 4+ hours (preferably overnight) before serving.
