This is an old Amish recipe, also called “Tears on Your Pillow Pie,” that I have made for years. I have adapted the recipe as the original was for a fire-powered oven. It’s one of my most requested pies. Store in refrigerator but for best taste allow to reach room temperature before serving.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon flour (heaping)
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie shell
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Combine brown sugar and flour in a mixing bowl. Mix in melted butter. Add evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla extract; stir well. Pour into the pie shell.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to bake until center is soft but not jiggly, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
