If you're from Indiana, then you might be familiar with a version of a sugar cream pie, and you already know how good it is! Well, our Sugar Cream Pie recipe is super simple and full of those classic cinnamon and nutmeg flavors that made this pie a state specialty.
What You'll Need
- 1 rolled refrigerated pie crust (from a 14.1-ounce box)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
What to Do
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll the pie crust and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Flute edges and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, the nutmeg, and salt. Add heavy cream, half-and-half, and vanilla; stir until well mixed. Pour into pie shell.
- Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until center is set; let cool. In a small bowl, mix remaining sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over pie before serving.

I have only tried making a sugar pie once in my life. It wasnt a sugar cream pie. Normally I am a good cook, but on this I failed miserably. My pie was so hard that no one could eat it. This recipe looks like it will turn out much better. Maybe I will give it a try. Wish me luck!

I have never had sugar cream pie before, but I usually love cream pies. Based on the ingredients this seems like an easy dessert to throw together. Also, it seems like it would be inexpensive. I would like to test this and see how it turns out.

Well, the name says it all--SUGAR cream pie! This is a wonderful dessert for summer picnics, graduation parties, Father's Day. It has simple ingredients and has simple steps so that I can make it without hesitation. I think I will "healthy it up" and serve strawberries or raspberries on the side.

I need to watch my sugar intake, so I'm going to substitute Splenda for the sugar, too. Splenda is supposed to be a baking substitute for sugar, so it should work.
