Ingredients

• 1 piece Pie crust (unbaked, 9-inch)
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, crimp the edges, and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and flour until well combined.

Step 4

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until just melted, then remove from the heat.

Step 5

Slowly whisk the melted butter into the sugar and flour mixture until smooth.

Step 6

Add the apple cider vinegar, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Whisk until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggles in the center when shaken.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature. The filling will continue to set as it cools.

Step 10

Optional: Lightly dust the top of the pie with ground cinnamon for garnish before serving.

Step 11

Slice the pie into 8 even portions and serve. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
