How to Make Crumb Pie
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Gradually whisk in 2 cups milk until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 large eggs yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the thickened filling into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the filling.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
