Okay, I didn't go to a Cinnamon Festival. As far as I know it's not a real thing. But it was in an episode of Psych so...
This recipe was inspired by said episode in which Gus and Shawn eat more slices of cinnamon pie than I can count (okay, I could but then I'd have to watch the whole episode, which I didn't have time for). Per my post yesterday, this is actually from years ago, when I had a different blog (same blog different name), and never published it... because of reasons?

| Looks good right? |
Ingredients:
1 c. white sugar
1.5 Tbsp flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp melted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1.5 c milk
1 unbaked pie crust (10", these are found in freezer section)
Optional: Whipped cream
Directions...
1) Preheat oven to 400º F
2) In a medium bowl combine sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt.
3) Add beaten egg, butter and vanilla. Mix well.
4) Add milk. Mixture will be very thin, aka "liquid-y".
5) If using the aluminum pie plate it came in, place crust on cookie sheet first. Pour mixture into pie crust and place in oven.

| No, I didn't put my crust on a cookie sheet first, that was an after thought. |

| Will look cooked on top, but pudding like underneath until it sets. |
8) If desired, serve with whipped cream!
9) Watch Psych.
Good pie and some Psych...that sounds like one hell of a combination to me! I think this is perfect to set off my first day off in a long, long time!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, first? Never apologise for posting dessert recipes. Who cares about healthy stuff when there's pie on offer?? ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by that pie. I've only ever made apple pie. Is the middle of it like cinnamon flavoured custard? I don't think you can get frozen pie crusts here, but if you can, I think I'll have to try this!
@Thundercat: I know the feeling!
ReplyDelete@Melbourne: This actually tastes a lot like apple pie sans apples. And yes sort of custard-y, flan-like. Looks like the same consistency of pumpkin pie but I don't really know because I don't eat pumpkin pie. I'm sure you don't have to use a frozen pie crust, just most of us wouldn't make one from scratch because that's a whole other daunting task. This was really so easy it wasn't even funny.
That looks so good! Yeah we do not get frozen pie crusts either but then I prefer making them from scratch anyway :) I have so many posts of your recipes bookmarked its not even funny!
ReplyDelete@Apfel: That's awesome! I'm thrilled that I'm bringing you recipes you want to make. I have so many recipes I want to try too which is one of the reasons I made it a feature on my blog; so that I force myself to make something new at least once a week :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a good episode! I've seen it like three times :)
ReplyDeleteThat was so much fun to make!
ReplyDelete@Miss me: Well they all are!
ReplyDelete@Sammi: Heck yeah! It was better once it set. Took me a few weeks to finish since I kept forgetting it was in my fridge. :P
