This isn't in my grandmother's cookbooks that I could find, but I have it on a separate piece of steno pad paper in her handwriting. This pie is similar in vein to pecan pie, but definitely different. It's delicious.
PEANUT PIE
3 eggs
½ cup (100g) sugar
2 T (16-18g) flour
1 cup (235 ml) light corn syrup
¼ cup (60g) peanut butter (cheap, smooth)
1 cup (150g) roasted, unsalted peanuts
1 9" (23cm) unbaked pie shell (Pilsbury frozen work well; maybe try a shortcrust recipe)
Beat eggs thoroughly. Mix sugar and flour together and add to eggs. Beat to mix. Add the corn syrup and peanut butter and continue to beat until completely mixed. Scatter the peanuts evenly (I completely cover) in the bottom of the pie shell and pour the pie mixture evenly over them. Bake in preheated 350°F oven. Immediately reduce heat to 325°F and bake about 1 hour or until puffed and brown. Allow to cool before serving.
This
blog is documentation of my late grandmother's handwritten recipes, as
well as recipes I've come across or made up. There are no photos or
images as my grandmother's recipe book didn't have any, except for ones
she clipped from magazines, for example.
These recipes are free for all to use. Please enjoy them by yourself, with friends, with family, feeding the hungry, or in whatever way you wish.
God bless you all.
