Description
Salted Honey Pie is a sweet and creamy dessert that combines the rich flavors of honey and cream, set in a flaky crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
- 1 cup honey
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
- Add the chilled butter and sugar, and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough holds together.
- Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan.
- Transfer the dough to the pan, trim the edges, and poke holes in the bottom with a fork.
- Pre-bake the crust for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the honey, heavy cream, eggs, vanilla extract, sea salt, and cornstarch until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly puffed.
- Allow the pie to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon to the filling.
- You can also top the pie with whipped cream or a sprinkle of flaky sea salt before serving for an extra touch.
