Quebec Sugar Cream Pie Recipe- Tartes au Sucre:

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Step 2

Mix brown sugar and flour directly in prepared unbaked pie crust until flour disappears.  Add the cream and mix with your fingers or wooden spoon, breaking any sugar clumps until the mix is uniform.

Step 3

Bake until entire surface of filling is boiling and crust is well bronzed, approximately 50 to 60 minutes.  Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature before serving.

Step 4

Note: A fresh pie crust can be used, but I have got into the habit of freezing my pie crusts before using.  This allows me to mix the ingredients with a spoon without damaging the crust.

Step 5

It is easier to tell when the pie is baked by eye rather than by time.  You will see lively boiling in the center, and sluggish boiling on the edge where the filling has thickened.
