Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

If you’re using a homemade crust, combine flour and cold butter until crumbly. Add ice water gradually, mixing until the dough comes together. Roll out the dough, place it in a pie pan, and blind-bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. 

2. Make the Caramel:
In a saucepan, combine sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until dissolved, then stop stirring and let it boil until it turns a golden amber color. Carefully add the heavy cream (it will bubble vigorously) and whisk until smooth. Remove from heat, stir in the butter, and let it cool slightly. Pour the caramel into the baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.

3. Prepare the Custard:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any lumps, ensuring a silky texture.

4. Assemble and Bake:
Gently pour the custard over the caramel layer in the pie crust. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake at 325°F (163°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.

5. Cool and Serve:
Allow the pie to cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours. This will help the custard and caramel layers set completely. Slice, serve, and watch it disappear in no time!


Tips for the Perfect Pie

  1. Don’t Rush the Caramel: Keep an eye on the sugar as it caramelizes. The golden amber color is key for achieving that rich flavor, but overcooking it can result in bitterness.
  2. Strain the Custard: Straining ensures your filling is smooth and free of lumps or air bubbles.
  3. Chill Before Serving: The flavors and textures develop best when the pie has time to set in the refrigerator.
