Yield Makes one 14-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 8

About 6 tablespoons Clarified Butter, melted
12 to 14 sheets store-bought phyllo
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for dusting
3 cups whole milk
6 large eggs
1 generous cup superfine sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 14-inch round cake pan with some of the clarified butter; set aside.
  • Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on work surface with one long side parallel to edge of work surface. Using your hands, loosely ruffle phyllo by pushing short sides toward one another to create a long cylindrical shape. Place upright in center of prepared cake pan, creating a spiral. Repeat process with remaining sheets, continuing spiral outward until bottom of pan is covered.
  • Using a pastry brush, brush remaining clarified butter all over phyllo in pan; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Transfer to oven and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat milk in a medium saucepan until it just barely begins to boil; remove from heat. Whisk together eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Gradually add heated milk, a little bit at a time, whisking constantly; whisk in vanilla.
  • Spoon milk mixture over baked phyllo, evenly covering surface. Return pan to oven and bake until filling has set, 25 to 30 minutes more. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon; serve immediately.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used a gluten-free flour blend to make the crust. It worked perfectly!

This pie was a little too runny for my taste. I think I'll cook it for a few minutes longer next time.

I'm not a big fan of nutmeg, so I omitted it from the recipe. The pie was still very good.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

This ruffled milk pie was a delight! The filling was creamy and smooth, with just the right amount of sweetness. The crust was flaky and golden brown. I'll definitely be making this pie again.
