PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH CORN PIE

This is my mom's corn pie. We grew up eating this and loving it in the heart of Amish country. It is a very hearty dish, and easy to make. Give this one a try before you decide you won't like it. Corn takes on a whole different flavor made this way. Some people add cooked chicken to the pie as well.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large potato, peeled and chopped
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 (15 ounce) package double crust ready-to-use pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the potato, whole kernel corn, creamed corn, hard cooked eggs, salt, pepper and milk. Simmer for about 15 minutes.
  • Press one of the pie crusts in to the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate. I like to use clear glass so I can check the bottom crust for doneness. Pour the hot filling into the crust. Dot with pieces of butter. Cover with the top crust, and flute the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to vent steam. Place on a cookie sheet that has been lined with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
  • Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the crust is browned. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is the best choice for this recipe, as it has the sweetest flavor. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the corn: Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy. The corn should be cooked just until it is tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese will give the pie a more flavorful taste. If you can't find sharp cheddar, you can use a mild cheddar, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie until the top is golden brown: The pie is done baking when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Pennsylvania Dutch Corn Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The pie is made with fresh corn, cheddar cheese, and a few simple ingredients. It can be served as a main course or a side dish. If you are looking for a delicious and hearty dish that is sure to please everyone at the table, Pennsylvania Dutch Corn Pie is the perfect choice.
