How To Make Sugar Cream Pie Recipe

You are welcome to use a store-bought crust or opt to make homemade. For this pie, I did make a homemade pie crust. Work the pie crust ingredients together until the dough comes together. Roll the dough out, place it in the pie plate, and crimp the sides with your fingers. Set it aside.

Then you will want to work on the cream pie filling (it doesn’t take much to put it together), pour it into the pie crust and bake. I love that the top becomes a beautiful golden color when it’s baked. Once it is baked you can then allow to cool and then refrigerate to set up.
