Sugar Pie Recipe

Crust:

Preheat oven to 390°F.

Mix dry ingredients for the pie crust in a large bowl.

Cut in chilled butter and combine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add water gradually until the dough is not too dry and holds together (Pinching a small piece of dough between your fingers is a good method for testing the proper consistency of the dough. If the dough holds together, it is ready).

Divide dough into two balls and roll both out on a floured surface to fit into 10” pie dish.

Place one dough circle into pie dish.

Cut second crust into 6 to 8 strips to crisscross over pie filling.

 
Filling:

Preheat oven to 390°F.

Melt butter slowly in a small saucepan pan.

Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl.

Stir in melted butter.

Pour mixture into pie dish.

Weave dough strips in a crisscross pattern on pie.

Bake at 390°F for 45 minutes or until crust is golden.
