Sugar cream pie

Common card · No. 486821

Sugar cream pie (also known as sugar pie or Hoosier pie) is a custard pie made with a simple filling of cream, sugar and cornstarch. The pie has been made in Indiana since the state's founding in 1816. There is a general consensus that a "true" sugar cream pie doesn't include eggs. It is sometimes called a desperation pie because it is one of the easiest pies to make with ingredients that most people already have in their pantries, and because the lack of eggs or butter in the recipe makes it cheap.
