Sugar Cream Pie Recipe
Sugar Cream Pie is an easy no egg custard pie that’s sweet and has tons of vanilla flavor. Also called Hoosier Pie, traditionally it’s sprinkled with cinnamon and nutmeg but sometimes we’ll dust it with cinnamon sugar before baking. This is such a classic pie recipe, reminiscent of crème brulee.
