Ingredients
- 1 9-inch crust Prebaked pie crust
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 1 cup Cornstarch
- 2.5 cups Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a 9-inch prebaked pie crust and set it aside while making the filling.
Step 2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Mix until evenly blended.
Step 3
Slowly whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes, then whisk to combine.
Step 4
Microwave for another 2 minutes, whisk again, and repeat the process in 1-minute intervals until the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency (about 6-8 minutes total).
Step 5
Once thickened, add the butter, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Whisk until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Pour the hot filling into the prebaked pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Let the pie cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until completely set.
Step 8
Slice into eight pieces and serve chilled. Optionally, top with whipped cream or a sprinkle of extra cinnamon!
