Ingredients
  

For the Pie Crust

For the Filling
  • 1.5 cups Apple Butter Homemade apple butter is a great substitute.

  • 0.25 cups Dark Brown Sugar Can be swapped for light brown sugar.
  • 1 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour Omit if using a thicker apple butter.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Consider using vanilla bean paste for better flavor.
  • 14 oz Sweetened Condensed Milk Avoid substituting for texture.
For the Topping

  • 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar Granulated sugar can work in a pinch.

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie plate
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Mixer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the pie crust by rolling out the dough to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp the edges and par-bake at 375°F for 15 minutes with pie weights, then an additional 5 minutes after removing the weights.
  2. Mix the filling in a large bowl by combining apple butter, eggs, brown sugar, flour, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth, then add sweetened condensed milk and mix well.
  3. Bake the pie in the par-baked crust at 325°F for 30 minutes, checking for doneness when slightly jiggly in the center. Bake an additional 10-15 minutes until the filling is firm.
  4. Remove the pie and cool on a wire rack for at least three hours at room temperature. Refrigerate if short on time, loosely covered.
  5. Prepare cinnamon whipped cream by whipping the cream with powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until soft-stiff peaks form. Spread over the cooled pie.
  6. Serve by slicing with a sharp knife, wiping it between slices for clean cuts. Drizzle with apple butter if desired.
