A warm, gooey pie with caramelised honey, a flaky crust and just enough edge — the Burnt Honey Pie brings richness and nostalgia in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups all‑purpose flour

½ cup unsalted butter, chilled & diced

¼ cup ice water

¾ cup honey

½ cup heavy cream

¼ tsp sea salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 large eggs (room temperature)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Lightly grease a 9‑inch pie dish.

2. In a bowl combine flour and butter; use pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

3. Gradually add ice water until dough just holds together. Roll out dough and fit into dish; trim and crimp edges.

4. In a saucepan heat the honey over medium heat, stirring constantly, until caramelised (about 5‑7 minutes). Remove from heat immediately.

5. Stir in heavy cream, sea salt and vanilla extract; allow slight cooling.

6. In a separate bowl beat the eggs then slowly whisk into the honey mixture.

7. Pour filling into crust and bake for 35‑40 minutes until set and slightly puffed.

8. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack before serving.

Notes

Let the pie cool fully before slicing so the filling firms nicely.

For gluten‑free crust use a gluten‑free flour blend.

For a nutty finish, top with toasted almonds or pecans before serving.
