Time 4h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup white sugar
⅓ cup butter, melted
2 cups milk
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
3 eggs, separated
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/3 cup melted butter in a bowl; press mixture into a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven until firm, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Whisk milk, 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, flour, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 2 minutes, then add egg yolks while continuously stirring. Continue to cook and stir until thickened, about 1 minute more, and remove from heat. Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and vanilla extract. Allow vanilla mixture to cool for 10 minutes before pouring into prepared crust. Let pie come to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the meringue will form sharp peaks. Spread meringue over vanilla pudding.
  • Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Refrigerate for about 3 hours before serving.

This pie is amazing! The filling is creamy and smooth, and the crust is flaky and golden brown. I will definitely be making this pie again.

The vanilla custard pie was a disaster. The filling was runny and the crust was soggy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still a good pie. The filling was creamy and smooth, and the crust was flaky.

I'm not a huge fan of custard pies, but this one was surprisingly good. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was perfectly flaky. I would definitely make this pie again.

This pie is perfect for any occasion. I made it for a potluck and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved the creamy filling and the flaky crust.

The vanilla custard pie was a bit too eggy for my liking. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie turned out a little too sweet for my taste. I think next time I'll reduce the amount of sugar in the filling.

I've made this vanilla custard pie several times now, and it's always a hit. The instructions were easy to follow and the pie turned out perfectly. The only change I made was to use a pre-made pie crust to save time.
