Ingredients

Salted Honey Pie Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water

For the filling:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

For the crust:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar.
  2. Add the butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add 1/4 cup of ice water and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add more ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until it comes together.
  4. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie dish and trim the edges. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
  5. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the parchment paper and weights and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool.

For the filling:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, sugar, vinegar, and sea salt.
  2. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
  3. Whisk in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
  5. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden brown on top.
  6. Let cool completely before serving.

Tips

Salted Honey Pie Tips

Here are a few tips to ensure that your Salted Honey Pie turns out perfectly:

  • Make sure that your butter is chilled and cut into small pieces before adding it to the flour mixture for the crust.
  • Be careful not to overwork the dough when you're mixing it. Overworking the dough can cause it to become tough and dry.
  • When you're rolling out the dough for the crust, make sure that it's evenly thick throughout. This will help to ensure that the crust bakes evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set properly and will make it easier to slice.
