DATE PIE
This was a favourite pie of my mother's, she was always coming up with something new n' unique.
Provided by Denise Davidson
Categories Pies
Time 1h
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- 1. If possible....cut dates in chunks n' put into saucepan so they will cook down quicker.....add 2-3 cups of water n' stir often (LOW heat)...you can add a bit more water until it cooks down to a nice consistency.
- 2. Once filling has cooked down, add sugar n' baking soda...then mix the cornstarch with water n' add it...stirring well. Let filling cool down for about 15 minutes or so, it will thicken more as it cools, then pour filling into the pie crust, smoothing it to the edges of the crust.
- 3. Use egg whites( room temp ) for the meringue....adding some sugar a bit at a time, not all at once...about 1-1 & 1/2 tsps....I also add a bit of creme of tarter but you don't have to. When filling has cooled a bit, and once you have formed "peaks" in the meringue....PILE it on top of the date filling, spread it to the edges of the crust....make some nice peaks (can use the back of a spoon). Into a pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until a nice golden brown...do check though to make sure it doesn't get too dark as most ovens vary in temp. ** This pie MUST be served cold....refrigerate for 4-5 hrs. ENJOY !!
Tips:
- Use ripe dates: Softer, riper dates are easier to work with and create a smoother, creamier filling.
- Pit and chop the dates finely: This will help the dates blend more easily into the filling and create a more consistent texture.
- Don't overcook the filling: The filling should be thick and bubbly, but not so thick that it becomes dry or rubbery.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and firm up, making it easier to slice and serve.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream, ice cream, or a dollop of yogurt: This will add a creamy,涼爽ing element to the pie.
Conclusion:
With its sweet, rich filling and flaky crust, date pie is a delicious and satisfying dessert that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are looking for a classic comfort food or something new and exciting to try, date pie is sure to please. So next time you are in the mood for something sweet, give this recipe a try and experience the deliciousness of date pie for yourself!
