Flapper Pie Recipe - Authentic Canadian Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs (separated)
  • 1 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup whipped cream (for topping)
  • 1 cup coconut flakes (optional topping)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a pie dish.

    Make sure the oven is fully heated before baking.
  2. Prepare the Crust

    In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until crumbly and press into the bottom of the pie dish.

    Use a flat-bottomed glass to press the mixture evenly.
  3. Make the Filling

    In a saucepan, whisk together milk, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla. Cook over medium heat until thickened.

    Stir constantly to prevent the mixture from sticking.
  4. Bake the Pie

    Pour the filling into the prepared crust and bake for 25-30 minutes until set.

    A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve

    Let the pie cool completely. Top with whipped cream and coconut flakes if desired before serving.

    Chill the pie in the refrigerator for a few hours for best flavor.
