By

Ingredients

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 c sugar
  • 1 T white cornmeal
  • 1/2 t kosher salt
  • 1 T vanilla
  • 3/4 c honey
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 c heavy cream
  • 2 t white vinegar
  • 1-2 t flake sea salt

Preparation

Step 1

Have ready 1 frozen 9" pie crust. Preheat oven to 375. In a bowl, stir together the melted butter, sugar, cornmeal, salt and vanilla. Stir in the honey and add the eggs one at a time, then the cream and vinegar.
Place the frozen pie shell on a baking sheet and strain the filling through a fine mesh sieve directly into the pie shell. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 45-50 mins, rotating 180 degrees after about 30 mins. The pie is finished when the edges are set and the center is no longer liquid but looks set like gelatin and is golden brown on top. Cool completely on a wire rack. Sprinkle with flake sea salt and serve.
