Poor man's Pie image

I searched this out originally for a friend who wanted to recreate a pie from her childhood. Now I'm posting it for a request on the boards. I haven't made it, so let me know what you think about it.

Categories     Pie

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 9 inch pie shell
1 cup brown sugar or 1 cup white sugar, but brown tastes better
1/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups light cream
3 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Line a large 9-inch pie plate with rolled out pastry dough, prick with a fork and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and reduce heat to 350°F.
  • In a small bowl, combine sugar, flour and salt.
  • Mix well and spread evenly over the bottom of the crust.
  • Warm cream in the microwave, (warm, not hot) and then carefully pour the warmed cream over the sugar mixture, completely covering it.
  • In bits, dab butter over the cream.
  • Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes to an hour, or until golden spots form on the top.
  • The filling will seem liquid but will become firmer as it cools.

This recipe was a disaster. The biscuits were dense and dry, and the filling was bland and watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. I usually add some chopped carrots and celery to the filling, and sometimes I'll use a different type of meat, like ground turkey or chicken. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetabl

I'm not a big fan of pot pies, but this recipe changed my mind. The biscuits were light and flaky, and the filling was so flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a bit of a disappointment. The biscuits were tough and the filling was watery. I think I'll stick to my usual pot pie recipe.

This recipe was just okay. The biscuits were a little dry, and the filling was bland. I think it could have used more seasoning or some chopped vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of biscuits, but even I liked this dish. The filling was so flavorful and hearty, and the biscuits were surprisingly light and fluffy. I would definitely make this again, even if I just ate the filling.

This dish was a little too heavy for my taste. The biscuits were dense and the filling was greasy. I think it would be better with a lighter biscuit recipe and a less fatty filling.
