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 a great make-ahead dessert. I often make it the night before and then just pop it in the oven before dinner.

I followed the recipe exactly but my pie didn't turn out. The filling was too runny and the crust was soggy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of custard pies, but I was pleasantly surprised. The filling was light and fluffy, and the crust was perfectly golden brown.

I've made this pie several times now and it always comes out perfect. The vanilla flavor is subtle and not overpowering, and the texture is smooth and creamy. Highly recommend!
