Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Salted Honey Pie
  1. Prepare the crust by mixing flour and cold butter until resembling coarse crumbs. Press into a 9-inch pie pan and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Blind bake the crust with parchment and weights for 20 minutes until edges are golden.
  3. Whisk heavy cream, brown sugar, honey, and egg yolks until smooth. The mixture should cling to the whisk.
  4. Pour custard filling into the pre-baked crust and bake for 25-30 minutes until slightly jiggly in the center.
  5. Cool the pie completely before serving. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before serving.

Notes

Chill the crust before baking to maintain shape. Beat egg yolks until pale for a lighter custard. Don’t overbake to avoid rubbery texture. Add sea salt after cooling for best flavor.
