Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 9-inch pie crust, pre-made or homemade

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Roll out the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and trim any excess dough. Crimp the edges if desired and prick the base lightly with a fork. Place the pie dish in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

Step 4

Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Stir continuously until the sugars are fully dissolved and the mixture becomes smooth and glossy, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

Sprinkle in the flour and mix well, ensuring there are no lumps.

Step 6

Slowly whisk in the heavy cream and whole milk. Keep stirring until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let it boil.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 8

Pour the warm filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and has a slight jiggle in the center.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to ensure it sets properly.

Step 11

Serve chilled or at room temperature, optionally garnished with whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
