How to Make Virginia Diner's Peanut Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Crush 2 cups of raw peanuts using a rolling pin or mallet until finely ground but not powdery.
- Lightly beat 2 large eggs in a large bowl.
- Whisk in 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and ½ cup all-purpose flour until completely smooth.
- Stir in 1 cup light corn syrup and the crushed peanuts. Add ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted.
- Pour the filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the pie is a deep golden brown, set around the edges, but with a slightly jiggly center.
- Let the pie cool completely to room temperature on a wire rack. This allows the filling to set properly.
- Serve chilled, topped with whipped cream, if desired.
