What the heck is a 'Vinegar Pie'? It doesn't sound very appetizing! That's exactly what ran through my head when I saw this recipe! But it sounded so unique that I had to find out! So I got brave and gave it a whirl!
It's very easy to make. I finally realized, while I was whisking the ingredients together in a saucepan and waiting for it to thicken, that this is basically a spiced custard that you then bake in a pie shell! Not as horrible as I thought! I took a little taste, after I poured it into the pie shell...it was delicious! It tasted like an apple pie without the apples! Does that make sense?
I made the mistake of telling my younger daughter that this was a vinegar pie, so she didn't want any part of it! But when my older daughter asked what it was I told her it was a spiced custard pie...she ate one piece and asked for seconds! Then I told her the ingredients but she didn't care because she already loved it!
I will definitely make this again for guests, but I'll keep the ingredients a secret until after they eat it!
Here is the link to the recipe...but if you make it in a deep dish pie crust double the ingredients. And chill the pie before slicing or you'll have a plate full of pudding!
