Ingredients You'll Need
Pie Crust:
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup cold butter, cut into small cubes
3-4 tablespoons ice water
Pudding Filling:
1/3 cup cornstarch
2/3 cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
3 cups whole milk
4 egg yolks
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
Optional: Chocolate chips, whipped cream, and additional pie crust for decoration
Directions:
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and get your pie crust ready. You can either use a store-bought crust or make your own by following these simple steps:
In a food processor, mix together the flour and salt.
Add in the cubed butter and pulse until the mixture is crumbly.
Slowly add in the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish.
Trim the edges and crimp them for a decorative look.
Poke the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the crust is baking, it's time to prepare the pudding filling. In a saucepan, mix together the cornstarch, sugar, and salt. Gradually add in the milk, whisking until the mixture is smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to boil.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. Slowly add in a cup of the hot pudding mixture to the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling. Then, pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining pudding and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove the pudding from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Cover the surface with plastic wrap and let it cool for about 30 minutes.
While the pudding is cooling, it's time to whip up the heavy cream. Using a mixer, beat the cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the cooled pudding mixture until well combined.
Once the pie crust is cooled, pour the pudding filling into the crust and smooth out the top. If desired, you can add some chocolate chips on top for an extra touch of sweetness. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the pudding is set.
Before serving, you can add some whipped cream and additional pie crust decorations on top for a festive touch. And there you have it, a delicious and easy-to-make pudding pie that will be the perfect ending to your Thanksgiving feast. Enjoy!
