– 1 cup honey
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 3 large eggs
– 1 cup whole milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)
Creating Burnt Honey Pie is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and set aside.
2. Burn the Honey: In a small saucepan, heat the honey over medium heat until it turns deep amber and develops a burnt aroma. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Be cautious not to let it burn too much.
3. Combine Cream and Milk: In another saucepan, combine the heavy cream and whole milk. Heat until just simmering, then remove from heat.
4. Mix Eggs and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
5. Add Honey: Slowly pour the burnt honey into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent cooking the eggs.
6. Incorporate Cream Mixture: Gradually add the cream and milk mixture to the egg and honey mixture, stirring until fully combined.
7. Pour into Crust: Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is nicely browned.
9. Cool: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for at least 15-20 minutes before serving.
