How to Make Poor Man's Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roll out 1 1/4 cups (140g) of pie crust and line a 9-inch pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove from oven and reduce heat to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1/4 cup (30g) all-purpose flour, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Spread the sugar mixture evenly over the pre-baked pie crust.
- Heat 2 cups (475ml) heavy cream in the microwave until warm (about 30-60 seconds). Stir gently and carefully pour over the sugar mixture, ensuring it's fully covered.
- Dot the top with 4 tablespoons (55g) of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. The filling may appear slightly liquid when you remove it from the oven but will firm up as it cools.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
