This pie screams southern tradition. Very famous throughout Kentucky as a rich sweet, transparent pie is very simple to make. Some people put meringue on it, but I am not a fan of meringue on anything. So that bit is optional. Give these pie a try, it's like pecan pie, but without the pecans.
Transparent Pie Recipe:
3 egg yolks, beaten
5 tablespoons of cream
2 tablespoons of butter
1 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Allow the butter to reach room temperature before beginning the pie. Then work the butter into the sugar. Add the egg yolks, cream and vanilla. Pour the filling into an unbaked pie shell. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes. Use the egg whites to make a meringue if desires, but it isn't necessary.
