Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup margarine
½ cup white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
2 teaspoons baking powder
salt to taste
4 cups milk
1 teaspoon margarine
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 ½ teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or to taste
2 dashes ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Press dough into bottom and sides of two 8-inch pie plates to form crusts.

  • Mix 1 1/2 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 2 1/2 teaspoons flour, cornstarch, and vanilla extract into a smooth paste in a bowl. Pour over hot milk in the saucepan.
  • Return saucepan to medium heat and stir milk mixture until thick, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Divide milk mixture evenly between the cooled crusts. Sprinkle cinnamon on top. Cool until filling is set, about 30 minutes.
