Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and 0.5 teaspoons of salt.

Step 2

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour and cut it in using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together.

Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface into a circle large enough to fit a 9-inch pie pan.

Step 7

Transfer the dough to the pie pan and trim any excess overhang. Crimp the edges if desired.

Step 8

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.

Step 9

Stir in the corn kernels, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt.

Step 10

Pour the filling mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 11

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
